If the current passwords do not meet the password policy they are automatically
reset to the defaults shown in Table 3.2. Usernames remain the same.

To finalize any changes reset the device using the Network Reset button. The
network reset restarts your device. This may take a few seconds. You will need to enter
the new credentials when logging back in.
IP Address
Network parameters can be changed from the access control page. To change the
default static IP address type a new address in the IP address box. Press the Save
button to confirm your change. A Network Reset is required before the new settings
take effect. After the network reset the page automatically re-loads using the new IP
address.
When changing to an IP address on a different subnet you will be unable to
reload the webpage until you connect your ZW-REC to that subnet.
If you change the IP address it is highly advised that the label be updated.
Remove the IP Address sticker and write in your new IP address in the area
provided.
Host Name, DHPS and DNS Server
The default host name for the ZW-REC is zwrec**** where **** are the last 4 digits
of your MAC Address. See Figure 2.1 for the location of the MAC address.
You may access the ZW-REC using its host name instead of its IP address. To use
this feature you must first enable DHCP and connect to a Domain Name Server (DNS).
Enabling DHCP allows your DHCP Server to automatically assign an IP address.
Checking the DHCP box overwrites the static IP settings. Be sure to also enter the
address of your Domain Name Server (DNS) when you enable DHCP. A DNS links
your device's host name to its IP address. To use a DNS, enter its address in the DNS
box. If DHCP is turned on but a DNS is not available it may be difficult to locate the
correct IP address to connect to your ZW-REC.
Once you have made your desired changes press the Save button to confirm your
change. A network reset is required before the new settings take effect. Once the
device is reset you navigate to https://HOSTNAME to access the ZW-REC. Please note
that it may take a few moments for your DNS server to recognize your receiver.
It is very important to communicate with the network administrator in order to
understand DHCP and its existing configurations on the host server, before
enabling DHCP on the Receiver.
On Windows servers where DCHP and DNS are separate functions it is very
important to configure the DHCP server to communicate with the DNS in order
for the Host Name to be correctly identified.
If you cannot access the ZW-REC using its Host Name, please contact your
network administrator to make sure the DHCP server and DNS are linked
together.
