MAIN/TCP/IP Settings – Port and IP settings
The LAN TCP/IP page is where you can set up the TCP/IP settings of your Prima IP. Here you can specify
the IP address, net mask, gateway address, DNS address and access port base for viewer and for browser
(port base +8), or whether you want to use DHCP.
However, before you go on with the various settings on this page, you might need to check first with your
network administrator for proper settings. If you do not configure those TCP/IP settings properly, you will
not be able to make valid connections to the Prima IP.
After you have made all modifications, click
Store Settings
to save your settings and then hit
Apply
Settings/Restart Servers
to validate these new settings.
No change you have made on this page will apply until you hit
Apply Settings/Restart Servers
!
TCP Port Base
: You can freely specify the port base for viewer connection with the
Prima IP
server. You
can choose any available port base, starting form the lowest alternative of port 5900 with an increment of 10
right up to port 6090. The port base you choose is exactly the port number that
Prima IP
uses for viewer
connection. “port base + 8” is the exact port number you will use for secure http connection for the browser.
After you have made the port base modification, remember to hit the Store Settings button, and then hit the
Apply Setting/Restart Servers to validate your changes.
Host Name
: The host name is the name that the
Prima IP
will assume on your Local Area Network.
Domain Name
: Specify here the domain name for your
Prima IP
as it appears on your LAN. (Leave it
empty if you don’t know).
Use DHCP
: This option allows the
Prima IP
to get all TCP/IP settings automatically from a DHCP server.
IP Address
: Enter a fixed IP address (in dotted decimal format such as 192.168.1.200) that will be used by
the
Prima IP
in your LAN.
Network Mask
: Enter a net mask value (in dotted decimal format such as 255.255.255.0) that will be used
by
Prima IP
in your LAN.
Gateway
: Enter the fixed IP address (in dotted decimal format such as 192.168.1.254) of the gateway (i.e.
router) to access the Internet.
DNS
: Enter the IP address (in dotted decimal format such as 80.10.246.30) of the DNS server that will be
used by
Prima IP
for domain name resolution. Ask your network administrator if you don’t know.
Note:
You must enter a valid DNS server IP address to allow the email alert of
Prima IP
to be
effective.
