5.2 Connecting via Ethernet
You can connect to the MV-6 via Ethernet using either of the following
methods:
Directly to the PC using a crossover cable (see Section 5.2.1)
Via a network hub, switch, or router, using a straight-through cable (see
Section 5.2.2)
Note: If you want to connect via a router and your IT system is based on IPv6,
speak to your IT department for specific installation instructions.
5.2.1 Connecting the Ethernet Port Directly to a PC
You can connect the Ethernet port of the MV-6 directly to the Ethernet port on
your PC using a crossover cable with RJ-45 connectors.
This type of connection is recommended for identifying the MV-6
with the factory configured default IP address.
After connecting the MV-6 to the Ethernet port, configure your PC as follows:
1. Click Start > Control Panel > Network and Sharing Center.
2. Click Change Adapter Settings.
3. Highlight the network adapter you want to use to connect to the device
and click Change settings of this connection.
The Local Area Connection Properties window for the selected network
adapter appears as shown in Figure 4.
