Access to hostname of Edge Gateway
On this page you configure the host name.
The host name identifies the device via the WiFi or LAN network.
The default host name starts with the two letters "NT" followed by the LAN
MAC address of the LAN connection port 1 of the Edge Gateway. Example
NT0002A233E559
. The default host name is printed on the label at the
bottom of the Edge Gateway. With the host name you can access the Edge
Gateway from your PC even without knowing the IP address of the Edge
Gateway (also see

If the Edge Gateway does not obtain an IP address from a DHCP server,
the system cannot translate the host name and you cannot access the
device.
