GETTING STARTED WITH AEP MODELS
2. If using two cellular antennas, check Diversity. Do not check this option if using one antenna.
3. To enable dial-on-demand, check Dial-on-Demand. This tells the device to only make a PPP connection
when there is outgoing IP traffic, and it brings the PPP connection down after a given idle timeout.
4. The default Idle timeout is 180 seconds. If desired, you can enter a different value.
5. Type the APN (Access Point Name). The APN is assigned by your wireless service provider.
6. Click Next.

Setting Up PPP Authentication

To set up cellular PPP authentication:
1. Select an authentication protocol Type used to negotiate with the remote peer: pap, chap, or pap-chap.
The default is None.
2. Type the Username for the remote peer to use for authentication. Optional. Username is limited to 60
characters.
3. Type the Password for the remote peer to use for authentication. Optional. Password is limited to 60
characters.
4. Click Next to exit the wizard.

Entering IP Address and Network Information

Set the IP address and network information for the Ethernet port:
Note: Leave the interface static unless using a DHCP server on the network that the device is connecting to. If
you select DHCP client, you need to know which address is assigned to the Conduit. For information on DHCP
settings, refer to DHCP in the AEP Help.
1. Type the device's IP Address
2. Enter the network Mask.
3. Enter the Gateway address (optional and not displayed when Cellular is enabled).
4. Enter the Primary DNS server address (optional and not displayed when Cellular is enabled).
5. Enter the Secondary DNS server address (optional and not displayed when Cellular is enabled).
6. Click Next.

Configuring Access

When Cellular is disabled, the default settings enable HTTPRedirect to HTTPs via LAN.
Note: Enabling HTTPs via WAN can increase security risk including allowing web users to access the WAN
interface.
1. Under HTTP Redirect to HTTPs, check Enabled to turn on or uncheck to turn off.
2. Enter Port or use default value.
3. Check either Via LAN or Via WAN.
4. Under HTTPs, enter Port or use default value.
