If you need to enter a port number
Usually, when you make a network connection to the iPEPS (either using the
VNC viewer or a Web browser) you simply enter the IP address, i.e. 192.168.0.3.
However, if a special configuration is necessary, then you may be asked to
specify a port number as well as the IP address.
What is a port?
To enter a port number in a Web browser
1 Enter the required IP address in the usual Address box,
i.e. http://192.168.0.3
2 At the end of the IP address, add a single colon and then enter the port
number (in this example, the required port number is 8000),
i.e. http://192.168.0.3:8000
3 Continue with the standard Web browser instructions.
To enter a port number in VNC viewer

number (in this example, the required port number is 11590),
i.e. http://192.168.0.3::11590
3 Continue with the standard VNC viewer instructions.
