Updates to the Local IP address and DHCP server will not take effect until the
UT is rebooted.
DHCP Reservations: This section allows the user to add an IP address that will
permanently be assigned to a particular DHCP address based upon the detected
device's MAC address.
The Ethernet Security page allows the user to enable Ethernet MAC Filtering.
• Ethernet MAC Filtering: User can select any detected device and add the MAC
address to the Allowed MAC Addresses field to the left. The user can also
manually add a MAC address in the box at the bottom of the page, then add it
to the Allowed MAC Address field.
Enabling Ethernet MAC Address Filtering will also block any Wi-Fi connected
devices unless they are included in the Wi-Fi MAC Address Filter list.
The Wi-Fi settings page allows the user to enable, disable, and configure the Wi-Fi
functionality of the terminal. Once Wi-Fi is enabled and configured, TEs can connect
to the terminal wirelessly.
Fields on this page include:
• Enable Wi-Fi: Turns the Wireless LAN interface on/off. The default is off
(unchecked).
• Network Name (SSID): The default is "Strigo- and the last 7 digits of the
terminal's IMEI number)", but you can change it to your preferred setting.
• Broadcast SSID: You can enable/disable the broadcast of your terminal's SSID.
• Network Channel: This controls the radio channel number (1 through 13)
used by the access point.
• Wi-Fi Protection: The user can select between WPA or WPA2 encryption of
the Wi-Fi data.
• Wi-Fi MAC Address Filtering: Allows the user to enable MAC Address Filtering
for devices connected over Wi-Fi.
The user can select any detected device and add the MAC address to the
"Allowed MAC Addresses" field to the left. The user can also manually add a
MAC address in the box at the bottom of the page, then add it to the "Allowed
MAC Addresses" field.
Note: If performance issues occur over the Wi-Fi interface it may help changing the
Wi-Fi channel.
