Network configuration
General
It is essential that the network settings are correct if you
want to control the device and monitor remotely via
your browser.
Note
Please read the following general instructions be-
fore setting up the device.
A network is the connection of at least two network-com-
patible devices.
Transmission methods:
wired networks (e.g. CAT5 cable)
wireless networks (WLAN)
other transmission types (Powerline)
All systems have significant similarities but are different
in various ways.
Terms
Below there is an overview of terms related to using the
device on networks.
Parameter
Setting
IP address
An IP address is the unique address of
a network device on a network.
It must only appear once on a network.
Certain IP address ranges are re-
served for public networks, such as
the internet.
Private ad-
dress range
E.g. 10.0.0.0
–10.255.255.255
Subnet mask: 255.0.0.0
172.16.0.0
–172.31.255.255
Subnet mask 255.255.0.0
192.168.0.0
–192.168.255.255
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Subnet mask
A subnet mask is a bit mask that is
used to make decisions and assign-
ments during routing.
The standard subnet mask on home
networks is 255.255.255.0.
Gateway
A gateway is a network device that al-
lows all other network devices to ac-
cess the internet.
It can be, for example, the computer to
which the DSL modem is connected
or, most frequently, the router or ac-
cess point on the network.
Parameter
Setting
Name
server
The name server, also known as the
DNS (Domain Name Server), is responsi-
ble for assigning a unique IP address to
a web address or URL (e.g.
www.google.de).
When a domain is entered into a
browser, the DNS searches for the corre-
sponding IP address of the server and
forwards the query on to it.
The IP of the provider's DNS can be en-
tered here. However, it is often sufficient
to select the IP of the gateway. This then
forwards the queries independently to the
provider DNS.
DHCP
The DHCP server automatically assigns
the IP address, subnet mask, gateway
and name server to a network device.
DHCPs are available in current routers.
The DHCP service must be specially set
and activated (see the relevant manual
for more information).
Note:
When using fixed IP addresses together
with a DHCP server, you should ensure
that the fixed IP addresses are outside of
