Common Configuration Setups

Static IP Setup

In some networking environments it is best to have the IP address set to a fixed value. The advantage is that since it is fixed, connecting to it can be a lot simpler.

Static IP is often the best choice if you are trying to connect via WAN or through a Firewall. It can be difficult to resolve the Blue Heat/Net Sync‟s IP address if you use DHCP in this instance.

The default configuration is a static IP of 192.168.42.1. In most cases this will not be the address you want to use in your network. You can change it using two different methods:

Serial Configuration Manager (SCM)

A direct serial connection to on of the serial ports on the Blue Heat/Net Sync. Or

Web Configuration Manager (WCM)

Using a web browser like Internet Explorer to connect to the unit.

Refer to the manual sections for specific details on using the SCM and WCM.

Example:

You want to configure a static IP on a Blue Heat/Net Sync of 198.182.196.15. The network‟s server is at 198.182.196.1 and the gateway is 198.182.196.2. The subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.

Using SCM

Log onto the Blue Heat/Net Sync. There is no login necessary if using SCM. The default password for the SCM is password.

Enter net net=198.182.196.0. This will set 198.182.196.0 to the server, gateway and the unit‟s IP in one step.

Enter net my_ip=15. This will set the unit‟s IP to 198.182.196.15.

Enter net server_ip=1. This will set the server IP to 198.182.196.1.

Enter net gateway_ip=2. This will set the gateway IP to 198.182.196.2.

Enter net subnetmask=255.255.255.0. This will set the subnet mask.

Enter net dns_ip=3. This will set the DNS IP to 198.182.196.3

Enter net dhcp=no. This will turn off DHCP on the unit.

Enter save. This will save the configuration set above to flash memory.

Enter exit. The unit will reboot using the new settings.

Using WCM

Connect to the Blue Heat/Net Sync using a web browser by entering the current IP of the unit in the address.

Log on by supplying the username and password. The default login is wcm and the default password is password.

Select the Blue Heat/Net Sync Settings page and fill in the server IP, Blue Heat/Net Sync IP, Gateway IP, DNS IP and subnet mask as defined above.

Ensure the Use DHCP option is set to no

Click on the Save to Flash button to store the changes.
