GadgetGateway Serial Interface

Enter the NAT Router's WAN Address:

Either NAT router's WAN IP address requested in the format shown (XX.XX.XX). If you

press ENTER without typing in anything the previous value is retained.

When using a NAT router as the internet interface for the LAN upon the GadgetGateway

is connected, the NAT router's WAN IP address must be static (unless Dynamic DNS is

used). The GG router's LAN address must also be static and the ANSI 852 port must be

mapped by the NAT router.

4.4.10 Enable/Disable NAT Router Support

Select [S] from the menu and press ENTER.

>>> s

Enter NAT Support State

1) Disabled

2) Enabled

>>>

When NAT support is enabled the GG Router will substitute the NAT router's WAN IP

address as the source address in the appropriate ANSI 852 packet headers. This enables

852 devices that are on other LANs on the WAN side of the NAT router to correctly

respond to the local GG router. It may or may not be possible to have two GG routers on

the same LAN side of a NAT Router when NAT support is enabled. Each Gateway would

need to have a unique 852 port number mapped by the NAT Router and the NAT router

would have to be able to support local loopback of WAN addressed packets.

Select [H] from the menu and press ENTER.

>>> h

NOTE: Requires Save and Restart to take effect.

Enter Your New WebServer Port:

Input the Gateway's IP port (0-65534) for its embedded web server and press ENTER. The

new port will appear in the menu. (The default is 80.). If you press ENTER without typing

in anything the previous value is retained. This option may be useful when either NAT or

Dynamic DNS is being used and some other device on the local LAN is already port

mapped to port 80.

The conﬁguration must be saved to ﬂash and then the node rebooted before the changes

take effect. To save the conﬁguration, press [P] for previous and then [S] for save conﬁgu-

ration to ﬂash, and then [Q] to reboot.

If the webserver port is set to something other than 80, the port number must be explicitly

included in the web browser's URL. For example, if the http port is set to 8080 then a URL

something like http://10.0.2.95:8080/ must be used to access the GG Router's web page.
