Changing Ethernet Settings
If the Wireless Area Controller is installed into the facility’s building LAN, by default, it is set for obtaining an IP address automatically
through DHCP. It is possible to assign a static IP by changing the selection to use a defined IP address, and then typing in the desired IP
address, subnet mask and default gateway.

Changing DNS Settings
If not using DHCP, it is possible to hardcode the domain name server settings into the WAC by typing in the IP addresses of the desired
domain name servers. For non-public domain name servers, use a manual name server entry.

Custom Certificates
WaveLinx uses Eaton provided default SSL certificates that are installed with the system to certify Wireless Area Controller communication
to mobile devices and computers. The provision has been made to allow for future support of other custom certificates. This custom
certification option feature is not currently operational and should not be used without discussion with Eaton’s technical support team.
