Configuring the SiteProtector SP3001 appliance to communicate with
the network
You must configure the SiteProtector SP3001 appliance before it can communicate with the network.
When you connect the SiteProtector SP3001 appliance to the network for the first time, you must enter
some or all of the following information in the SiteProtector SP3001 appliance's LCD panel:
v
IP Address
v
subnet mask
v
gateway address
v

v
host name
CAUTION:
Do not change the SiteProtector SP3001 appliance's host name or the IP address after the appliance has
established communication with an external device. Doing so prevents the SiteProtector SP3001
appliance from communicating with the SiteProtector Console and any other external device. To
re-establish this communication, you may be required to manually reconfigure the public and private
keys that are exchanged between these devices, which can be a time-consuming and error prone
process.
