Global user (IP network port)

The AdderView CATx IP models provide an autosensing Ethernet

IP port that can operate at 10 or 100Mbps, according to the network

speed. The AdderView CATx IP

models are designed to reside quite easily at any part of your network:

• They can be placed within the local network, behind any

firewall/router connections to the Internet, or

They can be placed externally to the local network, on a separate sub- network or with an open Internet connection.

Wherever in the network an AdderView CATx IP is situated, you will need to determine certain configuration issues such as address allocation and/or firewall adjustment to allow correct operation. Please refer to Networking issues within the Configuration chapter for more details.

IMPORTANT: When an AdderView CATx IP is accessible from the public Internet or dial up connection, you must ensure that sufficient security measures are employed.

To connect the Global user (IP network) port

1Depending upon where in the network the AdderView CATx IP is being connected, run a category 5, 5e or 6 link cable from the appropriate hub or router to the AdderView CATx IP unit.

2Connect the plug of the link cable into the IP port on the front panel of the AdderView CATx IP unit.

3Configure the network settings as appropriate to the position of the AdderView CATx IP within the network - see Networking issues for details.
