Network

Network Configuration
This section is for entering the specific network settings needed for the FF240-IP to run on your network.
By factory default, the FF240-IP ships with the IP address 192.168.2.1 for setup purposes. After setup
and prior to connecting to your live network, enter the needed parameters for proper operation on the
network where the FF240-IP is to operate.
Hostname
Enter the hostname that will be associated with this FF240-IP unit. This is what will be used in
conjunction with Store and Forward faxing through email. The Fax server will check the
hostname entered here and in Fax Configuration | Store & Forward Fax (T.37): Additional Hosts.
If an email comes from an email client not listed in either of these locations, that email will be
rejected.
Description
Here you may enter a custom description for this network connection.
IP Address
Enter the IP address that has been set for this FF240-IP unit. If you are setting this FF240-IP up
for the first time, remember that once this has been changed, you will have to be on the same
network to make further changes.
Subnet Mask
Enter the subnet mask that has been set for this FF240-IP unit. A typical subnet mask is
255.255.255.0, though your network may be different.
Default Gateway
Enter the IP address of the default gateway on the network for this FF240-IP unit. The default
gateway is what allows the FF240-IP to contact network addresses outside of the local network.
This is necessary for contacting an internet time server or SMTP server.
Primary DNS
Enter the primary domain name server (if any) that this FF240-IP unit will use for name
resolution of IP addresses. Changing this value will require a reboot of the unit.
Secondary DNS
Enter the secondary DNS server (if any) for this FF240-IP unit. Changing this value will require a
reboot of the unit.
Save button
When you have entered your information, be sure to click the save button before navigating
