as a standard application in the following operation systems, UNIX, Linux, Mac OS,
Windows 98/NT/2000/Me, etc. The product provides a very easy and user-friendly
interface for configuration.
3.1 Before Configuration
This section describes the configuration required by LAN-attached PCs that
communicate with the ADE-4120, either to configure the device, or for network access.
These PCs must have an Ethernet interface installed properly, be connected to the
ADE-4120 either directly or through an external repeater hub, and have TCP/IP installed
and configured to obtain an IP address through a DHCP server or a fixed IP address
that must be in the same subnet of the ADE-4120. The default IP address of the ADE-
4120 is 192.168.1.254 and subnet mask is 255.255.255.0. The best and easy way is to
configure the PC to get an IP address from the ADE-4120. Also make sure you have
UNINSTALLED any kind of software firewall that can cause problems accessing the
192.168.1.254 IP address of the router.
