Configuring the SiteProtector SP1001 Appliance to Communicate with
the Network
When you connect the SiteProtector SP1001 appliance to the network for the first
time, you must enter some or all of the following information in the SiteProtector
SP1001 appliance’s LCD panel:
v IP Address
v
subnet mask
v
gateway address
v
DNS Server
v
host name
CAUTION:
Do not change the SiteProtector SP1001 appliance’s host name or the IP address
after the appliance has established communication with an external device. To
do so will prevent the SiteProtector SP1001 appliance from communicating with
the SiteProtector Console and any other external device. To re-establish this
communication, you may be required to manually reconfigure the public and
private keys that are exchanged between these devices, which can be a
time-consuming and error prone process.
Advantage to using the SiteProtector Console
The SiteProtector Console provides a much easier interface to enter information.
After you have connected to the network for the first time, use the SiteProtector
Console as much as possible to configure the SiteProtector SP1001 appliance.
