Nodes on a remote LAN are automatically discovered via the Internet by selecting “WAN”
under “Select Network Type”, entering the Public IP Address of the router to which the Nodes
are connected, and pressing on “Repeat Node Discovery”.

Node discovery uses UDP Port 63179. If this port is blocked by the router, go to the
“Advanced Settings” tab. There you can change enter a second UDP port number, which will
then be used for discovery in addition to 63179. All other Laurel Nodes must also be changed
to the new UDP port.

Once discovered, individual Nodes can be selected for configuration by clicking on their line,
as described on the previous page. Shown at the bottom of the screen for each selected Node
are the Node Name, Node MAC #, Node IP address, Node Type, and Node firmware revision.
