2.1.1 Obtaining Gateway IP Address
MX8A/HX4E Gateways start DHCP service by default, and automatically obtain an IP address on the
LAN; you can use the factory-default gateway IP address if it is unable to be obtained (e.g. when
connected directly with a computer).
To change the fixed IP address, you can use a telephone connected to the FXS port to dial *90+the fixed
IP address+#subnet mask#IP address of the gateway#0#. The dots "." in the IP address need to be
replaced with star keys "*".
To obtain an IP address through DHCP, you can use a telephone connecting to the FXS port to dial
*90###1#, and after "The feature is now activated. " is heard, restart the device.
Table 2-1 Default IP Address of Gateway
You can dial ## to obtain the current gateway IP address, version information of firmware and port
used to access the Web GUI using the telephone connected to the subscriber line (FXS ports) after the
equipment is powered on.
If the device does not have FXS ports (such as an MX8A-8FXO or HX440E), you can use New
Rock's device IP address obtaining tool called "Finder" to obtain the IP address.
You can get the "Finder" software by sending email to gs@newrocktech.com.
2.1.2 Logging On
Enter the gateway IP address in the browser address bar (e.g. 192.168.2.218). You can enter the gateway
configuration login interface by entering a password on the login interface. Both Chinese and English
Languages are provided for the Web GUI.
