IP Settings (Cont.):
Host Name	Sets the host name of the panel.
	• PRIMARY DNS sets the address of the primary DNS server being used by the
	Modero panel for host name lookups.
	- DNS (Domain Name System) is software that lets users locate computers
	on a local network or the Internet (TCP/IP network) by host and domain. The
	DNS server maintains a database of host names for its’ domain and their
	corresponding IP Addresses.
	• SECONDARY DNS sets the secondary DNS value to the panel.
Primary DNS
	Sets the address of the primary DNS server used by the panel for host name
	lookups.
Secondary DNS
	Sets the secondary DNS value to the Modero panel.
Domain
	Sets the unique name on the Internet to the panel for DNS look-up.
MAC Address
	This value is factory set by the manufacturer of the wireless mini-PCI Ethernet
	card.
Access Point MAC	This value is factory set by the manufacturer of the Wireless Access Point
Address:	(WAP).
	• When communicating with a WAP200G enter the MAC Address (BSSID) of
	the target WAP as the Access Point MAC Address. Refer to the WAP200G
	Instruction Manual for more detailed information on the interaction between
	these two product lines.
Wireless Settings:	Sets the communication values for the optional NXA-PCI80211G mini-PCI wire-
	less communication card (if present).
Network Name (SSID)
	Provides the Service Set Identifier (SSID), required by the panel, before it is
	permitted to join the wireless network. The SSID is the unique name used on
	the WAP and assigned to all panels in a wireless network that are communicat-
	ing to the same target WAP.
	• It is case sensitive and must not exceed 32 characters, which may be any
	keyboard character. Make sure this setting is the same for all points in your
	wireless network.
	• This unique string identifies the network and is the same string for all users on
	the same network.
Authentication	Toggles between the two authentication modes: Open System or Shared Key:
	• An Open system network allows connections from any client without
	authenticating whether that client has permission to associate with the
	network.
	• A Shared key network requires the client to submit a key which is shared by
	the network Wireless Access Point before it is given permission to associate
	with the network. In this case the key is the same as the WEP encryption
	key.
	• In both cases, even after association has taken place, if WEP encryption has
	also been enabled then the client will still require the WEP key to encrypt and
	decrypt packets in order to communicate successfully with the network.
Encryption	Cycles through the available encryption options: Clear Text, WEP64, and
	WEP128. Wired Equivalent Privacy is an 802.11 security protocol for wireless
	networks. The WEP encryption method is designed to provide the "equivalent"
	security available in wireline networks.
	• Clear Text causes network packets to be sent out as unencrypted text.
	• WEP64 enables WEP encryption at 64-bits. In this case all packets will be
	transmitted with their contents encrypted using the Default WEP Key.
	• WEP128 enables WEP encryption at 128-bits. All packets are transmitted
	with their contents encrypted using the Default WEP Key.
	• If the key is not the correct size, the system will resize it to match the number
	of bits required for the WEP encryption mode selected.
