| WAN, enable Active Discovery. Active discovery searches |
| for UBoxes outside of your local network. It requires that you |

| been set up) of the UBox that you want to access. |
IP Address | If you selected Active Discovery, the IP Address field |
| becomes available. Enter the UBox’s IP address. |
TCP Port | If you selected Active Discovery, the TCP Port field |
| becomes available. Enter the TCP port number. The default |
| setting is 10010. |
