Connect Vessel Network Devices

Connect Vessel Network 
Devices

The BDU includes four Ethernet ports and a built-in 
wireless access point (WAP). Ethernet ports 1 through 4 
and the built-in WAP provide high-speed Internet access. 
Follow these additional steps to set up the network.

1.

Connect the computers and/or other network devices 
to the BDU. You might wish to add an external WAP (or 
Wi-Fi router configured for bridge mode) to 
supplement the built-in Wi-Fi access.

Figure 46:  Vessel Network Example

2.

Devices connected to the BDU (via Ethernet cables or 
Wi-Fi) will receive IP addresses from the BDU via 
DHCP. The BDU serves as a router.

Note: 

Unless you changed the LAN settings at the Setup 

Wizard, the LAN has a gateway of 192.168.5.1 and assigns 
IP addresses in the 192.168.5.50-150 range.

Global Static IP 

Global Static IP service allows you to set up a network 
device with an IP address that can be accessed directly 
from the Internet. It does not receive an IP address from 
the BDU. If you require Global Static IP Service, follow 
these additional steps to configure the network.

1.

Fill out the request form at 

www.kvh.com/staticip

. In 

addition, the system must be activated for KVH ONE 
service, and it must remain online until KVH configures 
the system over the air.

2.

Connect the static IP device(s) to the BDU.

3.

You will need to configure the devices’ TCP/IP 
properties according to the instructions KVH will 
provide in an email upon fulfilling the static IP request.

IMPORTANT!

A static IP address should only be assigned to a secure 
device, such as a firewall router.
