What should be set up for an Ethernet address?
Two ways can be used to assign an address:
• use the Automatic setting so that an automatic address will be assigned.
• Assign manually an IP address, Net-mask (subnet-mask), (default) gateway address.
- Set the IP-Address field to the desired value. This must NOT be 0.0.0.0 for static IP-Address
assignment. The IP address identifies a projector's location on the network in the same way a street
address identifies a house on a city block. Just as a street address must identify a unique residence, an
IP address must be globally unique and have a uniform format.
- Set the Subnet-Mask as appropriate for the local subnet.
- Set the Default-Gateway to the IP-Address of the local router (MUST be on the local subnet!) on the
same network as this projector that is used to forward traffic to destinations beyond the local network.
This must not be 0.0.0.0. If there is no router on the projector's local subnet then just set this field to any
IP-Address on the subnet.
Security when using a network
If unprotected, your network can be accessible from anywhere by anyone within the operating range of the
(wireless) network, if the security settings of the (wireless) network are insufficient. If people with malicious
intent access your network, sensitive information may leak to outsiders, or the projector itself may be
tampered with.
On network side, Barco thus recommends the maximum amount of security for your network, in order to avoid
this form of tampering. Some network devices may not be properly set for security when installed out of the
box. Make sure to read the provided user documentation of the network device to properly set up the
necessary security settings of the (wireless) network.
On projector side, Barco recommends you to make a limited amount of specific users on the external tools
Barco provides (e.g. Projector Toolset), and change all default passwords provided to strong passwords. For
more information on user creation and password changing, please consult the user guide of the external tools
(e.g. Projector Toolset).
A strong password has a minimum of 8 characters and should be unique. The password should be a
a mix of upper case letters, lower case letters, numbers and special characters.
