Network Configuration Scenario
In the previous section, we determined that there are two types of network architecture: LAN and WAN, and
that, for every type of architecture, we can either assign reserved IP addresses or let the DHCP server
assign addresses dynamically.
Now that you have determined the appropriate configuration scenario, and before proceeding with the
installation and configuration of the KT-NCC and the EntraPass Global Edition, you have to assemble the
network information that is required to configure the KT-NCC controller.
To facilitate the task for you, we have prepared diagrams to illustrate every configuration scenario
presented in the previous section. We have thus included a blank page and a table at the end of the
manual that you can use to insert your specific configuration if it does not match the models shown.
Note:
Please note that information such as the IP address entered in all dialog boxes in this manual
are fictional. They are used only as examples.
It is important at this stage, if you have not already done so, to contact the Network Administrator where the
KT-NCC will be installed to obtain as much information as possible so that you can enter it in the diagram
that matches your network environment. We suggest that you always have a copy of the diagram close by,
and keep a copy with your KT-NCC controller.
Default KT-NCC Parameters
You will use the following parameters when configuring the KT-NCC.
Ethernet Port #1
•
Ethernet Port
#1
is DHCP and is used to connect the KT-NCC to the EntraPass server.
•
Ethernet Port #1
is configured in DHCP mode by default. It is advisable to always use the default value
18710
. However, in an environment where you would have to do port forwarding and where you have to
configure several KT-NCCs on the same network segment, ensure that every KT-NCC has a unique
port number in order to avoid IP address conflicts.
•
The
MAC
Address
is found on the top right, under Ethernet Port #1 of the KT-NCC printed circuit. (See
Figure 5: KT-NCC Connections Diagram on page 9.)
Ethernet Port #2
•
Ethernet Port # 2
is used to configure the KT-NCC using the
KT-NCC Web Configuration tool
. It can
also be used to connect TCP/IP sites.
•
The
MAC Address
is found on the top right, under Ethernet Port #2 of the KT-NCC printed circuit. (See
Figure 5: KT-NCC Connections Diagram on page 9.)
