4 Network configuration

Before you can use the dLAN 1200 triple+ in your

dLAN network, you must first connect it to other dLAN

devices as a network. Two specific pieces of informa-

tion are especially important for this:

The joint use of the dLAN password is for access

control purposes; it results in a delimited dLAN

network.

The joint use of the dLAN password is for network

encryption purposes, protecting against intercep-

tion of the transmitted data.

The dLAN password can be specified automatically by

means of the encryption button or manually using

the devolo Cockpit program. Please note the follow-

ing basic principle when choosing your encryption

method:

For dLAN networks in which all associated

dLAN devices are equipped with an encryp-

tion button, a dLAN password can be easily gen-

erated at the touch of a button.

For dLAN networks that include a combination of

devices with and without encryption but-

Network configuration 16

tons, the password must be specified with the

devolo Cockpit.

4.2 dLAN network encryption

at the touch of a button

To encrypt a dLAN network in which all associated de-

vices are equipped with an encryption button, simply

press the encryption button located on the device.

Pressing this button will encrypt your dLAN network

with a randomly generated password.
