Network Planning
If DynaPro Go will communicate with the host via TCP/IP and an 802.11 wireless access point, network
administrators should do the following before deployment:
1)
Coordinate with your sales representative to obtain the certificate chain that must be installed on the
host to enable TLS communication with the device.
2)
Determine how the
IP addresses
of all DynaPro Go devices and the host will be allocated.
3)
The device configuration supports connection to only one access point. Make sure there is adequate
signal strength
between the access point and all locations where the device will operate wirelessly.
4)
The device supports
WPA2-PSK (TKIP)
,
WPA2-PSK (AES)
, or
WPA2-PSK (TKIP/AES)
wireless security. Make sure the access point is configured to support one of these.
5)
Determine whether to use MAC filtering on the access point and plan a way for MACs for new
devices to be added to the list.
6)
If the device and host will use static IP addresses, allocate those addresses and determine what
Gateway and Subnet Mask the devices should use.
7)
Configure the network’s DNS server in one of three ways:
a)
Register the host as providing an mDNS Service name, or
b)
Register the host with a DNS name, or
c)
Don’t register the host with DNS, and exclusively use IP address.
8)
Determine what ports the device and host will use to communicate. By default, the device expects the
host connect to
port 26
, must be able to access DNS via UDP using
port 53
, and must be able to
access DHCP on
port 67
. Make sure the network and firewalls are configured so the device and host
can initiate connections on the selected port(s).
9)
DynaPro Go does not require an Internet gateway.
