1.Select port 1 ~ port 8 if you are using EDG-4508+U. Select port 1 ~ port 16 if you are using EDG-4516+U.
2.Key-in the data idle time. The default is 60 seconds. If you want to keep connection continually, you can key-in "0". Data idle Time is the time period in which the device waits for data. If the EDG-4508+U/ 4516+U does not receive data over an established idle time, the EDG-4508+U/4516+U will disconnect temporarily. When the data comes to the EDG-4508+U/4516+U, it will reconnect automatically. Users do not need to reconnect.
3.Key-in another IP address of networking device which you want to connect.
4.Key-in another TCP port of networking device which you want to connect. If you want to connect to the port of another EDG-4508+U/ 4516+U, you have to note the following information.
TCP port of EDG-4508+U/4516+U: &&&&
TCP port of EDG-4508+U/4516+U's port1: &&&& +1
TCP port of EDG-4508+U4516+U's port2: &&&& +2 For example:
TCP port of EDG-4508+U/4516+U that you want to connect: 5220.
TCP port of Port 1: 5220 +1=5221
TCP port of Port 2: 5220 +2=5222
5.If you want to connect to a PC or any system, you have to key-in the TCP port of that PC or system.
