4.3.5 To set up dedicated connections
You can set up dedicated connections for the EXPLORER 540, e.g. for M2M equipment.
Note
1. From the Dashboard, click New connection package to create a new connection
package.
2. Under Type, select the connection type you want.
• Shared connection. This is the default setting, a shared background data
connection. ACA is disabled and there are no dedicated connections.
• Dedicated DHCP. This is a dedicated connection using DHCP. With this type, any
DHCP-enabled unit you connect to the EXPLORER 540 will get a new dedicated
connection used only for that unit. When you disconnect the unit, the
connection is removed after a few minutes. Each new connection gets its own
tile on the Dashboard as long as it is running. In the example below, three units
are connected using Dedicated DHCP. ACA is enabled for all Dedicated DHCP
connections and cannot be disabled, unless you delete the connection package.
• Dedicated static IP. This is a dedicated connection using a static IP address. Set
up the connected unit to use a static IP address and type in this IP address under
Static IP address.
If Automatic Context Activation (ACA) is enabled, the connection is established
automatically. Only the unit with the configured static IP address can use this
connection.
Note
3. Click Save.
