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
Address: This value is factory set by the manufacturer of the Wireless Access Point
(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.
