Your AP-9060/AP-16CO’s password

You will need the administrative password for your AP-9060/AP-16CO so that you can log into it and make changes. Your default user password is 111111. If your defaults have been changed, you will need to get this information from within your organization.

Existing port forward / NAT information

You need know your existing port forward and/or NAT settings before adding new ones in order to avoid conflicts. If you use point of sales software on your network you should call your vendor and make CERTAIN you have the settings and know how to avoid creating conflicts with them. Failing to do so could threaten your ability to create new transactions for a significant period of time.

Pitfalls to Avoid

IP Addresses in Your DHCP Range

DHCP servers are used for giving out temporary IP addresses to devices on your network that need them. This means that the IP address of any DHCP on your network can and will change as these IP address leases expire.

Your DHCP server will have a range of IP addresses that it can use for this purpose. If you set your AP-9060/AP-16CO’s static IP address to be within this range, you are creating the possibility that another device will be will be given the same IP address by your DHCP server. Should this occur, both of your devices will cease to function on your network until the problem is resolved.

A best practice is to set the static IP address of your AP-9060/AP-16CO to be outside of your DHCP server range, avoiding the possibility of this type of conflict. For example, if your DHCP server’s IP address range was 192.168.1.100 – 192.168.1.200, good IP addresses for your AP-9060/AP-16CO would be 192.168.1.50 or 192.168.1.250, but not 192.168.1.105.

Dynamic IP Addresses

If you leave your AP-9060/AP-16CO set to acquire a dynamic IP address, its IP address is likely to change over time, nullifying the effects of any forwarded ports or NAT routes to your AP-9060/AP-16CO and breaking access to it from the internet. If this occurs, you will have to re-configure your router to pass the correct ports to it again.

A best practice is to use static IP addresses that are outside your DHCP range for all AP- 9060/AP-16COs that will have ports forwarded to them.

Using Dynamic Public IP Addresses without Dynamic DNS

If your Internet Service Provider has given you a dynamic IP address with your internet connection, it is best, if possible, to acquire a static IP address from them. This way, you can browse to your AP-9060/AP-16CO on the internet by simply using your public IP address. For example, if your public IP address (from your information gathering
