Global user (IP network port)
The SC5-IP models provide an autosensing
Ethernet IP port that can operate at 10 or
100Mbps, according to the network speed.
The SC5-IP models are designed to reside quite
easily at any part of your network:
• They can be placed within the local
network, behind any firewall/router
connections to the Internet, or
• They can be placed externally to the local
network, on a separate sub-network or
with an open Internet connection.
Wherever in the network an SC5-IP is situated, you will need to determine
certain configuration issues such as address allocation and/or firewall adjustment
to allow correct operation. Please refer to
Networking issues
within the
Configuration chapter for more details.
IMPORTANT: When an SC5-IP is accessible from the public Internet or dial up
connection, you must ensure that sufficient
security measures
are employed.
To connect the Global user (IP network) port
1 Depending upon where in the network the SC5-IP is being connected, run a
category 5, 5e or 6 link cable from the appropriate hub or router to the SC5-
IP unit.
2 Connect the plug of the link cable into the IP port on the front panel of the
SC5-IP unit.
3 Configure the network settings as appropriate to the position of the SC5-IP
within the network - see
Networking issues
for details.
