4.2. Accessing and Changing the UHF Security Gate Network Configuration

There are two approaches to make the equipment accessible, either through changing the

network configuration of the equipment or the network configuration of the local area network.

Normally, changing equipment's network configuration is more feasible and practical. To

access the reader, please follow the steps below.

 Prepare a Notebook or computer with Ethernet adapter.

 Modify the network configuration with static IP and netmask. This will make the computer or

Notebook resides at the same network as the equipment.

IP Address 192.168.10.x (x can be any number between 1 to 252)

Netmask 255.255.255.0

 Connect the Ethernet port of the computer or Notebook and UHF Security Gate "LAN

Comm. Port" with a standard cat 5 network cable.

 Use SSH client to connect to the equipment. If this is the first time connecting to the

equipment, a security alert dialog pops up. Select "Yes" to continue. The username and

password to be used is as follows.

Username: sshuser

Password : IDSmart

 Modify "/home/sshuser/outgoing_network.config" to fit the current network

environment settings by typing "vi outgoing_network.config" at the command prompt.

This opens an editor window for changing the configuration.
