3 Network Setup
This diagram shows a basic network setup for
the ipGateway.
Once the ipGateway has been configured with
valid network information, i.e. IP Address etc, it
can simply be connected onto the current
private network.
This will allow the ipGateway to be visible from
anywhere on the private network.
To allow the ipGateway to be visible from
outside of this private network, i.e. the internet,
the router must be configured with a Network
Address Translation (NAT). A NAT allows the
router to direct requests from the internet to
devices on the private network.
3.1 Configuring the Email Server
To enable the ipGateway to send emails outside of the private network, i.e. to external recipients, it may be
necessary to configure the existing email server.
The email server will need to be configured to allow “relaying” through the email server. Most servers will allow
an IP address to be added to a list of devices allowed to relay through the server. The private IP address of the
ipGateway must be added to this list.
