2. Logging In
A. Bring up a Web browser on your pc. At the browser's address line, type the IP address of the
FaxFinder: type 192.168.2.1 and press Enter.
B. The Login screen will appear. At this point you can be assured that the FaxFinder is connected to
the network.
C. At the Login screen, enter admin (all lower case) in the Username field and admin (all lower case)
in the Password field.
D. Click the Login button. The Web Management Home screen will appear. From this screen, you
can access all of the FaxFinder Server software screens.
Note: The FFx30 units have real-time clocks. The default setting is to set the time via a timer server
(time.nist.gov). If the time is not accurate, a message may be issued by the web browser that the
certificate is invalid or expired. If this occurs, you should add an exception temporarily until the
IP Address and date/time are correctly set.
Once the date/time and IP Address are set, you will be able to generate a certificate with your
information (see Certificates section of Chapter 3).
3. Setting FaxFinder IP Addresses
A. Click on System Configuration in the top navigation bar.
B. Network Configuration is the first sub-category found in the left-hand navigation frame. Fill in the
IP information that applies to your FF130/230/430/830 FaxFinder Server unit. The fields for "IP
Address," "Subnet Mask," and "Default Gateway" are required. The Hostname field is used to
supply a fully qualified domain name (FQDN) for the FaxFinder Server when it accesses an email
server to send email (T.37). The hostname is used in conjunction with Store and Forward faxing
as the 'To' address; e.g. FAX=7635551234@hostname (where hostname would be something like
faxfinder.mycompany.com). A "Primary DNS" and "Secondary DNS" may be considered optional,
but, in any case, do not leave an invalid value in either of these fields.
C. Click Save. After the Save button has been clicked, it takes a moment for the FaxFinder to update
the addresses.
4. Resetting Admin PC to Its Regular IP Address
In step #1 above, you recorded the original IP address of the administrator's PC and then reset the IP
address as required to allow communication with the FaxFinder unit. You may now set the IP address
of the administrator's PC back to its original value or to any other value that will allow you to
communicate with the FaxFinder at its new IP address.
