L-IP User Manual 12 LOYTEC
Version 6.1 LOYTEC electronics GmbH
The built-in web server allows convenient device configuration through a standard web
browser like Internet Explorer or Firefox. The web interface also allows backup and
restoring the configuration of the configuration server and it provides statistics information
for system installation and network troubleshooting.
Starting with firmware version 2.0 the L-IP supports remote LPA operation. Remote LPA is
an advanced trouble shooting tool that streams the CEA-709 packets on the FT-10 or
TP-1250 channel over the IP network to a protocol analyzer connected to the IP network.
This allows remote troubleshooting of the local CEA-709 channels without actually being
physically attached to this channel. Please consult our product literature for the LPA-IP to
learn more about this IP protocol analyzer. This tool is a must for every system integrator
using IP-852 channels.

The L-IP series “C” models (product code ending with C) come with two Ethernet ports and
the device setup can be done easily on the LCD display. The remote Wireshark packet
capture feature is also available.
In addition the L-IP series “C” models are also equipped with enhanced security features
such as a built-in firewall and a secure Web interface for installation using HTTPS with
self-signed or installable CA certificates. By configuring separate IP networks on the two
Ethernet ports, the CEA-852 network can be entirely isolated from the configuration
interface.
For perfect integration into building management software such as the LWEB-900 by
LOYTEC, the L-IP series “C” models offers an embedded OPC UA server with certificate
authentication, which exposes important operational parameters as OPC tags. For enhanced
maintainability by IT departments these models provide the same data also through an
SNMP server. Together with the LWLAN-800 adapter these L-IPs can operate CEA-852 on
the WLAN. By setting up an access point on the Ethernet network, the device can be used
to distribute FT channels on a wireless network.
The L-IP is used for:
Tunneling CEA-709 packets over IP channels (Intranet/Internet)
Connecting CEA-709 networks over the Internet in a secure way
