Setting up an Access Series device for a DHCP network

Step 1

All Access Series devices are delivered with the subnet 192.168.0 and an IP address of 192.168.0.98.

When using DHCP the following settings are picked up automatically which will allow the device to connect successfully.

  • Available IP address
  • Gateway IP
  • DNS IP addresses

The next steps explain how to point the device to a specific MyConnection Server engine.

Step 2

Download and install the embedded MCS kit from here.

Step 3

Connect the Access Series device to the desired network.

 

Step 4

Run the configuration program by double clicking the AccessCfg.exe located in the installation directory used in step 2.

The configuration dialog will look like the example shown on the right. Clicking the search button should locate the Access Series device on the allocated IP address.

 

Step 5

Run the configuration program by double clicking the AccessCfg.exe located in the installation directory used in step 2.

The configuration dialog will look like the example shown on the right. Clicking the search button should locate the Access Series device on the allocated IP address.

 

Step 6

The Target Configuration section is used to specify the MyConnection Server that the Access device will connect and report to for security and management.

The password field shown in the dialog is the MyConnection Server password that manages the security of remote testing. By default this will be set to the factory settings and will only need changing if the MyConnection Server remote testing password has been changed.

Enter the new password and click Encode. To test the MyConnection Server settings click the Go To button, this should open the MyConnection Server menu or log-on page in a browser.

Click the Apply button to save all changes.
