HSNM Hotspot Manager-Assigning Network Parameters

Assigning Network Parameters

To define the IP address to be assigned to the HSNM ethernet interface, click on the “Admin” tab and select “System Settings“.

We suggest you configure the appliance with a public IP and possibly on a DMZ. If it is not possible and therefore you configure the appliance with a private IP, please note that you will have to configure the redirect of the ports required to run HSNM on your router/firewall.

The emergency IP address 192.168.10.10 will remain configured for any need .

On systems with subsystem version lower than or equal to 1.9, when you connect HSNM to your network, you will have to connect it through the ETH4 interface. On systems with a subsystem version equal to 2.0, the SMSS must remain connected to the LAN1 port.

Follow these steps:

Enter in the “IP address” field, the IP address that you want to assign to CO.IN. so as to connect it to your network (e.g. 192.168.0.200);
On “Subnet mask”, enter the network mask in CIDR format (example: 24);
On “Gateway”, enter the gateway of your network (e.g. 192.168.0.1);
On “Primary DNS” and “Secondary DNS”, enter valid DNSs (Example: 8.8.8.8);
In the “Host name” field, enter the name to assign to your device (example: HSNM1).

Now on the upper right corner in the command bar, click on the “Save” button, and then on the “Restart services” button so as to assign the new IP address to HSNM.

Concerning the HW version of HSNM, now you can log in to the systeme web administration interface using either the IP address 192.168.10.10 (On subsystem versions lower than or equal to 1.9 by connecting a PC to ETH3 port), or the new IP address assigned to the HSNM.
If you have a virtual HSNM, connect the ethernet port of the hosting machine to your network, and then verify whether it is reachable by trying to access the defined IP address through the web.
