IP Settings (Cont.):

 

Gateway

Sets a gateway value to the panel.

 

Gateway is a computer that either performs protocol conversion between

 

different types of networks/applications or acts as a go-between for two or

 

more networks that use the same protocols.

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 NXA-PCI80211G mini-PCI wireless

 

communication card installed within the Modero panel.

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.
