The ZonePROm processors derive their Node ID and the last two octets of their IP address 

from the  processor’s Mac address. This helps prevent IP address and Node ID conflicts when 
networking multiple ZonePROm processors. The ZonePRO 1260 and 1261 have a static IP 
address as shown in the above table. Therefore, when networking multiple ZonePRO 1260s or 
1261s, their IP addresses must be changed manually in order to avoid IP conflicts.

6.2 Networking Overview

This section provides a step-by-step guide on how to properly connect and configure LAN 
settings for three different network architectures. The first topology is a simple direct 
connection using an Ethernet crossover cable. The second method describes how to connect 
several ZonePROs to an isolated network and configure them with the ZonePRO Designer GUI. 
The final configuration details how to add one or more ZonePRO devices to an existing Local 
Area Network (LAN). The following subsections explain how and when to connect to a remote 
ZonePRO using the proxy feature and some tips and examples of how to access your ZonePRO 
by setting up a Virtual Private Network (VPN). This section concludes with some further 
networking considerations and troubleshooting tips that will help with connecting to your 
ZonePRO device via Ethernet.

Careful planning should be made before placing a ZonePRO on a network that provides any 
access to the public. Some examples of public access are direct access to the device from 
the Internet, an unsecured or weakly secured wireless network, a network jack in a public 
area that provides network access to the ZonePRO, or having a computer on the LAN that is 
not secured so that someone could use the ZonePRO Designer software to reconfigure the 
ZonePRO. It is highly recommended that the equipment be placed on a protected, isolated 
network that does not have any connection to the public to prevent unauthorized users from 
reconfiguring the device. Please refer to the VPN portion of this section for more information.

At the current time, ZonePROs do not support DHCP or Auto IP (see the previous “Default 
ZonePRO Network Settings” section for more information). In order to use Ethernet to manage 
the device from the ZonePRO Designer GUI, modifications to the network settings may be
