Digi Connect IT® 16/48 User Guide
Description
Enable forwarding between the cellular network and
any network/address connected using the
passthrough device. This allows connected devices to
forward and receive packets without NAT.
Disable this option unless specifically required, as
some cellular networks will disconnect modems that
send packets that are not from the carrier-assigned
IP address(es).
When enabled, the ancillary address and gateway will
be provided to the connected client while the
passthrough modem is not connected.
When the passthrough modem is not connected, the
ancillary address/netmask will be provided to clients
to allow functional local networking.
Syntax: IPv4_address/netmask
Default: 10.0.0.2/24
When the passthrough modem is not connected, the
ancillary gateway will be provided to clients to allow
functional local networking.
Syntax: IPv4_address/netmask
Default: 10.0.0.1
When the passthrough modem is not connected, the
ancillary gateway will resolve all DNS requests to
itself. HTTP traffic will be redirected to the device's
web administration page.
