IP network port

The Wizard IP provides an autosensing Ethernet IP port that can operate at 10 or
100Mbps, according to the network speed. The Wizard IP is designed to reside
quite easily at any part of your network:
• It can be placed within the local network, behind any firewall/router
connections to the Internet, or
• It can be placed externally to the local network, on a separate sub-network
or with an open Internet connection.
Wherever in the network the Wizard IP is situated, you will need to determine
