7.3.1 Switch WiFi operating mode
To integrate the ETHERLINE® GUARD into an existing WLAN network (client operation), change the
"
WiFi mode
" in the WiFi configuration under "
Change wireless connection mode"
accordingly.
It is possible to switch to client mode or to have both
operating modes (access point and client) active. If
both operating modes are active, the ETHERLINE®
GUARD can be accessed both via direct access, e.g.
from a tablet, and via the access point of the company
network.
In client mode, the ETHERLINE® GUARD must still
be told which WiFi network or access point it should
connect to and which IP settings it should use in the
WiFi network.
These settings can be made in the section "
Connect
to an access point
".
The desired
WiFi
network can be selected with the
"
Switch WiFi
" button.
The selection of the WiFi network is stored voltage-
proof in the ETHERLINE® GUARD.
