1. Set the static IP address for the laptop to be used for programming to the same network IP address as the NetWay8E.
The default address of the NetWay8E is 192.168.168.168, E.I. 192.168.168.200.
2. Connect one end of the network cable to the network jack on the NetWay8E and the other to the network connection of the laptop.
3. Open a browser on the computer and enter "192.168.168.168" into the address bar. A dialog box Authentication Required will appear requesting both user name and password.
Enter the default values here. Click on the button labeled Log In.
4. The status page of the NetWay8E will appear. Click on the tab labeled Network Settings. This will open the Network Setting screen. In this screen the MAC Address of the
NetWay8E module will be found along with the Network Settings and Email Settings.

Network Settings:

In the IP Address Method field select the method that the IP Address for the NetWay8E will be obtained (STATIC or DHCP), then follow the appropriate steps.
Static:
A. IP Address: Enter the IP address assigned to the NetWay8E by the network administrator.
B. Subnet Mask: Enter the Subnet of the network.
C. Gateway: Enter the TCP/IP gateway of the network access point (router) being used. (gateway configuration is required to properly receive emails from the device)
D. HTTP Port: Enter the HTTP port number assigned to the NetWay8E module by the network administrator to allow remote access and monitoring. The default inbound port
setting is 80. HTTP is not encrypted and unsecure. Even though HTTP can be used for remote access, it is recommended primarily for use with LAN connections.
E. HTTPS Port: Enter the HTTPS port number assigned to the NetWay8E module by the network administrator to allow remote access and monitoring.
The default inbound port setting is 443. Being encrypted and more secure, HTTPS is highly recommended for remote access.
F. Click the button labeled Submit Network Settings. A dialog box will display "New network settings will take effect after the server is rebooted". Click OK.
DHCP:
A. After selecting DHCP in the IP Address Method field click the button labeled Submit Network Settings. A dialog box will display "New network settings will take effect
after the server is rebooted". Click OK. Next, click on the button labeled Reboot Server. After rebooting the NetWay8E will be set in the DHCP mode.
The IP address will be assigned by the router when the NetWay8E is connected to the network. It is recommended to have the assigned IP Address reserved
to ensure continued access (see the network administrator).
B. Subnet Mask: When operating in DHCP, the router will assign the subnet mask values.
C. Gateway: Enter the TCP/IP gateway of the network access point (router) being used.
D. HTTP Port: Enter the HTTP port number assigned to the NetWay8E module by the network administrator to allow remote access and monitoring. The default inbound port
setting is 80. HTTP is not encrypted and unsecure. Even though HTTP can be used for remote access, it is recommended primarily for use with LAN connections.
E. HTTPS Port: Enter the HTTPS port number assigned to the NetWay8E module by the network administrator to allow remote access and monitoring.
The default inbound port setting is 443. Being encrypted and more secure, HTTPS is highly recommended for remote access.
F. Click the button labeled Submit Network Settings. A dialog box will display "New network settings will take effect after the server is rebooted". Click OK.

Heartbeat Timer:

The heartbeat timer will send a trap message indicating that the NetWay8E is still connected and communicating.
