    Overview Introduction The Kantech IP Link makes it easy and affordable to operate your Kantech security system over a network. Unlike other similar devices, the IP Link asynchronously polls the controllers (KT-100, KT-200, KT-300) and communicates with the EntraPass Gateway only when necessary. This significantly reduces the amount of bandwidth required to operate your security system on the network.

    Wide Area Network (WAN) As the term implies, a wide area network spans a large physical distance. A WAN like the Internet spans most of the world. A WAN is a geographically-dispersed collection of LANs. A network device called a router connects LANs to a WAN. In IP networking, the router maintains both a LAN address and a WAN address.

    IP Link Installation Manual methods, the KT-Finder and the Web Configuration Page, can be used when the PC has no EntraPass application running. WAN Configurations When sites are distant from each other and protected by the router’s firewall, the public IP address must be used for communication between EntraPass and the remote IP Link.

    Reserved DHCP IP Addressing Use this type of addressing in an environment where the customer DHCP server assigns the IP address automatically to the IP Link. Since the EntraPass application is at the host site, you must use the KT-Finder to configure the IP Link. Pre-Installation It is important at this stage to contact the Network Administrator where the IP Link is installed so that you can complete the Network Configuration Information Sheet.
