Networking - Universal Devices ISY-994i User Manual

EZRain Zone programs. Did I mess up the linking or is there a way to do
this?
• As far as EZRain, you have not messed anything up. We are still a bit ambivalent as
to what should be done with "not purely" INSTEON features such as Sprinkler
Zones, number of zones, programming zones, etc. On the one hand, that would make
ISY a great companion for EZRain but on the other it would make ISY manufacturer
dependent. So, please do bear with us till we figure out what's the best way to go.
And, thanks so very much for the feedback since it's only the feedbacks which prod
us to one direction vs. the other.

24.2 Networking

24.2.1 Can I use my ISY behind a NAT firewall; how do I connect remotely?
• Yes, you can by enabling the internet access for the ISY and using the correct
external URL. You should use: https://external.ip.address. If you change the ISY
https port from 443 you will have to append to port number to the external address:
https://external.ip.address:port
• The address and port can usually be found using the menu item Help|About.
24.2.2 I understand some routers can be auto configured by the ISY; which
ones are they?
• DLink DI-604, DI-614, DI-624, DIR-625, DIR-655
• NetGear WPN824v2
• Linksys WRT-54GS
• Buffalo AirStation
24.2.3 Can the ISY setup to be on my wireless network?
• As far as wireless-ness, ISY is Ethernet based and, thus, if you connect it to a
wireless hub/router/switch then all the computers on the "same" network as your
hub/router/switch can communicate with it regardless of the medium (wired vs.
wireless).
24.2.4 Do you have to enable the UPnP in the router?
• As far as making your router UPnP enabled: If you have a DLink Router of model DI-
6xx, they are automatically UPnP enabled out of the box. You only need to UPnP
enable your router if you want ISY to automatically configure it. Unfortunately, at
the moment, we have tested and support only DLink routers for automatic
