The next thing needed to be done is to find out the IP address of your media player. To do this you go to
the “Status” tab in the media player menu and check the IP address (Figure 116). Make a note of the IP
address.
The media players (and monitors) always report back their local IP addresses to the management server.
Note that the MAC address is the same as the unit serial number so you can actually keep track of your
devices using the management system.
Figure 117. In the “Status” tab of your media player (or monitor) you can find the current IP address of
your unit.
The third thing to see to is that your media player is open for incoming requests. As a security measure,
by default the media players and media monitors are always locked for inbound requests.
In order to address your media player you first have to go to the “Settings” tab of the media player and
uncheck the “Disable remote access to web server” box. Don’t forget to click the “Save” button further
down the page before proceeding. The unit will restart automatically after this change has been done.
