Viewing and configuring the IP and MKP setup
parameters

To configure the MKP to operate in your network, you may
need to change one or more of the following IP addresses and
the host control port setting:

The MKP’s IP address (default = 192.168.254.253)

The MKP’s subnet address (default = 255.255.0.0)

The MKP’s gateway address (default = 0.0.0.0)

The target matrix switcher’s IP address (default = 0.0.0.0)

Host control port setting (pass-through or no pass-
through) (default = no pass-through)

MKP’s connection setting



Primary

— Controls the switcher directly.



Secondary

— Controls the switcher through another

MKP and its Switch RS-232 port.

Valid IP addresses consist of four 1-, 2-, or 3-digit numeric
subfields (octets) separated by dots (periods). Each octet can be
numbered from 000 through 255. Leading zeroes, up to three
digits total per octet, are optional. Values of 256 and above are
invalid.

If any of the default addresses conflict with other equipment at
your installation, you can change them to any valid value.

CAUTION

Editing the Extron IP address and other parameters
while connected via the LAN port can immediately
disconnect you from the MKP. Extron recommends
editing this field using the front panel or the
RS-232 link, and protecting the Ethernet access to
these parameters by assigning an administrator’s
password to only qualified and knowledgeable
personnel.

Edit these addresses and set the host control as follows:
