IMPORTANT: Power switching devices have a maximum current rating. It is  
essential to ensure that the total current drawn by the equipment connected

Please.consider.the.following.when.making.cascade.connections.between.units.  
Tips for successful cascading  
1
I
•. The.maximum.number.of.levels.for.a.cascade.is.two.  
•. For.each.cascade.link,.use.a.standard.category.5,.5e.or.6.twisted-pair.cable,.  
terminated.at.each.end.with.an.RJ45.connector..There.must.be.no.crossover.  
connections.within.the.cable..The.cascade.link.cables.can.be.up.to.50m.(160.  
feet).in.length..Also.ensure.that.the.total.length.from.the.top.AdderView.  
CATx.1000.to.any.CAM.does.not.exceed.10m.  
•. The.procedure.given.opposite.may.be.carried.out.in.any.order.but.for.  
clarity.the.instruction.will.begin.at.the.AdderView.CATxIP.1000.unit..The.  
procedure.remains.the.same.regardless.of.exactly.which.cascade.levels.are.  
being.connected..The.basic.rule.is.that.each.link.is.made.by.connecting.a.  
COMPUTER CONNECTIONS.port.of.the.ADDERVIEW CATxip 1000 (upper.switch).to.  
the.REMOTE USER PORT.(on.the.front.panel).of.the.ADDERVIEW CATx 1000.  
3. Connect.the.other.end.of.the.cascade.  
link.cable.to.the.remote.user.port.  
(RJ45.socket).on.the.front.panel.of.  
the.AdderView.CATx.1000.unit..  
4. Repeat.steps.2.and.3.for.the.cascade.

Configuration

units.are.controlled.via.on-screen menu.displays..  
Overall initial configuration  
When.setting.up.a.new.installation,.the.following.stages.are.recommended:  
With security disabled (default setting), a local or remote user attached to  
the AdderView CATxIP 1000 will have full and unrestricted access to all  
computers and all AdderView CATxIP 1000 settings. In larger installations,  
you are strongly recommended to enable security and set up individual user  
accounts with access privileges.  
All AdderView CATxIP 1000 units have a fixed user account that cannot be  
deleted or renamed, called ADMIN. This user account is the only one that is  
able to make important system changes. If you intend to use security, then it  
is important to allocate a password to the ADMIN account.  
Use the ADMIN account to add user profiles, passwords and access rights  
for each of the system users.  
When numerous computers are attached, you are strongly advised to  
provide names for each, to assist with recognition.  
5. Configure.the.required.‘Setup Options’.and.‘Global Preferences’  
Use the ADMIN account to determine key AdderView CATxIP 1000 settings  
and timing characteristics.

If you need to change the VNC port number  
Placing AdderView CATxIP 1000 behind a router or firewall  
A.possible.point.of.contention.between.the.AdderView.CATxIP.1000.and.a.  
firewall.can.occasionally.arise.over.the.use.of.IP.ports..Every.port.through.the.  
firewall.represents.a.potential.point.of.attack.from.outside.and.so.it.is.advisable.  
to.minimise.the.number.of.open.ports..The.AdderView.CATxIP.1000.usually.uses.  
two.separate.port.numbers,.however,.these.are.easily.changeable.and.can.even.  
be.combined.into.a.single.port.  
If.you.change.the.VNC.port.to.anything.other.than.5900,.then.each.VNC.viewer.  
user.will.need.to.specify.the.port.address.as.well.as.the.IP.address..For.instance,.  
if.you.set.the.VNC.port.to.‘11590’.and.the.IP.address.is.‘192.168.47.10’.then.  
VNC.viewer.users.will.need.to.enter:.  
192.168.47.10::11590  
(Note.the.double.colons.that.separate.the.IP.address.and.port.number)..  
IMPORTANT: The correct configuration of routers and firewalls requires  
advanced networking skills and intimate knowledge of the particular network.  
Adder Technology cannot provide specific advice on how to configure your  
network devices and strongly recommend that such tasks are carried out by a  
qualified professional.  
The.firewall/router.would.also.need.to.be.informed.to.transfer.all.traffic.to.the.  
new.port.number.through.to.the.AdderView.CATxIP.1000.  
Addressing  
When.the.AdderView.CATxIP.1000.is.situated.within.the.local.network,.you.  
will.need.to.give.it.an.appropriate.local.IP.address,.IP.network.mask.and.default.  
gateway..This.is.achieved.most.easily.using.the.DHCP.server.option.which.  
will.apply.these.details.automatically..If.a.DHCP.server.is.not.available.on.the.  
network,.then.these.details.need.to.be.applied.manually.in.accordance.with.the.  
network.administrator.  
Port settings  
As.standard,.the.AdderView.CATxIP.1000.uses.two.ports.to.support.its.two.  
types.of.viewer:.  
•. Port 80.for.users.making.contact.with.a.web.browser,.and.  
•. Port 5900.for.those.using.the.VNC.viewer.  
The.firewall/router.must.then.be.informed.to.route.incoming.requests.to.port.  
5900.or.port.80.(if.available).through.to.the.local.address.being.used.by.the.  
AdderView.CATxIP.1000...  
When.these.port.numbers.are.used,.VNC.viewers.and.web.browsers.will.locate.  
the.AdderView.CATxIP.1000.correctly.using.only.its.network.address..The.  
firewall/router.must.be.informed.to.transfer.any.traffic.requesting.these.port.  
numbers.through.to.the.AdderView.CATxIP.1000..  
When a web server is also on the local network  
Port.80.is.the.standard.port.used.by.web.(HTTP).servers..If.the.AdderView.  
CATxIP.1000.is.situated.within.a.local.network.that.also.includes.a.web.server.  
or.any.other.device.serving.port.80.then,.if.you.want.to.use.the.web.browser.  
interface.from.outside.the.local.network.environment,.the.HTTP.port.number.of.  
the.AdderView.CATxIP.1000.may.need.to.be.changed.  
Remote.user.with.VNC.viewer.

and.automatically.uses.port.

When.you.change.the.HTTP.port.to.anything.other.than.80,.then.each.remote.  
browser.user.will.need.to.specify.the.port.address.as.well.as.the.IP.address..For.  
instance,.if.you.set.the.HTTP.port.to.‘8000’.and.the.IP.address.is.‘192.168.47.10’.  
then.browser.users.will.need.to.enter:.

To discover a DHCP-allocated IP address  
Once.a.DHCP.server.has.allocated.an.IP.address,.you.will.need.to.know.it.in.  
order.to.access.the.AdderView.CATxIP.1000.via.a.network.connection..To.  
discover.the.allocated.IP.address:  
1. In.network.section.of.either.the.local configuration menus.or.the.global  
configuration pages,.set.the.‘Use.DHCP’.option.to.‘Yes’.and.select.‘Save’..  
Once.the.page.is.saved,.the.AdderView.CATxIP.1000.will.contact.the.DHCP.  
server.and.obtain.a.new.address.  
2. Re-enter.the.same.‘Network.configuration’.screen.where.the.new.IP.address.  
and.network.mask.should.be.displayed..  
DNS addressing  
As.with.any.other.network.device,.you.can.arrange.for.your.AdderView.CATxIP.  
1000.to.be.accessible.using.a.name,.rather.than.an.IP.address..This.can.be.  
achieved.in.two.main.ways:  
•. For.small.networks.that.do.not.have.a.DNS.(Domain.Name.System).server,.  
edit.the.‘hosts’.files.on.the.appropriate.remote.systems..Using.the.hosts.file,.  
you.can.manually.link.the.AdderView.CATxIP.1000.address.to.the.required.  
name.  
•. For.larger.networks,.declare.the.IP.address.and.required.name.to.the.DNS.  
server.of.your.local.network..  
The.actual.steps.required.to.achieve.either.of.these.options.are.beyond.the.

Placing AdderView CATxIP 1000 alongside the firewall  
AdderView.CATxIP.1000.is.built.from.the.ground-up.to.be.secure..It.employs.a.  
sophisticated.128bit.public/private.key.system.that.has.been.rigorously.analysed.  
and.found.to.be.highly.secure.(a.security.white.paper.is.available.upon.request.  
from.Adder.Technology.Ltd)..Therefore,.you.can.position.the.AdderView.CATxIP.  
1000.alongside.the.firewall.and.control.hosts.that.are.also.IP.connected.within.  
the.local.network.  
Security.can.be.further.improved.by.using.the.following.suggestions:  
•. Place.the.AdderView.CATxIP.1000.behind.a.firewall.and.use.the.port.  
numbers.to.route.the.VNC.network.traffic.to.an.internal.IP.address.  
•. Review.the.activity.log.from.time.to.time.to.check.for.unauthorised.use..  
•. Lock.your.server.consoles.after.they.have.been.used...  
A.security.white.paper.that.gives.further.details.is.available.upon.request.from.  
Adder.Technology.Limited..  
IMPORTANT: If you make the AdderView CATxIP 1000 accessible from the public  
Internet, care should be taken to ensure that the maximum security available  
is activated. You are strongly advised to enable encryption and use a strong  
password. Security may be further improved by restricting client IP addresses,  
using a non-standard port number for access...  
Ports  
In.this.configuration.there.should.be.no.constraints.on.the.port.numbers.  
because.the.AdderView.CATxIP.1000.will.probably.be.the.only.device.at.that.IP.  
address..Therefore,.maintain.the.HTTP.port.as.80.and.the.VNC.port.as.5900.  
Ensuring sufficient security  
The.security.capabilities.offered.by.the.AdderView.CATxIP.1000.are.only.  
truly.effective.when.they.are.correctly.used..An.open.or.weak.password.or.  
unencrypted.link.can.cause.security.loopholes.and.opportunities.for.potential.  
intruders..For.network.links.in.general.and.direct.Internet.connections.in.

Power switching configuration  
Power control sequences  
Power.switch.configuration.comprises.two.main.steps:  
Note: The settings given below are for the EPS-S8 power switch - other power  
switches may require different settings. Please refer to your power switch  
documentation for details about codes required by other power switches.  
•. Configure.the.OPTIONS.serial.port.to.the.same.speed.as.used.by.the.power.  
switch.box(es),.using.the.configuration menu..  
The.structure.of.each.power.sequence.(OFF.and.ON).is.as.follows:  
•. Configure.power.ON.and.OFF.strings.for.each.relevant.host.computer.  
For.each.power.port.there.needs.to.be.a.valid.‘Power.ON.string’.and.similarly.an.  
appropriate.‘Power.OFF.string’..In.each.case,.the.strings.are.a.short.sequence.of.  
characters.that.combine.a.port.address.and.a.power.on.or.off.value..  
Pxy=z\0D.  
Where:.  
If.a.particular.computer.has.more.than.one.power.input.(and.thus.requires.an.  
equivalent.number.of.power.ports.to.control.them),.collections.of.strings.can.be.  
combined.to.switch.all.of.the.required.ports.together.as.a.group.  
x.is.the.switch.box.number,  
y.is.the.power.port.number,..  
z.is.‘0’.for.OFF.or.‘1’.for.ON,.and  
\0D.represents.Enter.(or.Carriage.return).  
To configure the power sequences for each host computer  
1. Using.VNC.viewer.or.a.browser,.log.on.as.the.‘admin’.user.  
Example 1  
2. Click.the.‘Configure’.button.in.the.top.right.corner.  
3. Click.the.‘Host.configuration’.option.  
To.switch.ON.port.5.of.switch.box.2,.the.code.would.be.as.follows:  
•. Power.sequence:..  
P25=1\0D  
4. Click.a.host.entry.to.display.a.Host.configuration.dialog:  
5. If.necessary,.configure.other.parameters.(Name,.Users,.Hot.Keys.-.MORE).  
Example 2  
To.switch.OFF.port.8.of.switch.box.3,.the.code.would.be.as.follows:  
•. Power.sequence:.. P38=0\0D  
For.details.about.operating.this.feature,.see.Power switching control.within.  
the.Operation.chapter.  
To control two or more ports simultaneously  
You.can.control.up.to.four.power.ports.using.a.single.sequence..This.is.done.  
using.the.same.command.structure.as.shown.above,.plus.a.delay.command,.  
for.each.port..Immediately.following.a.port.command,.insert.the.characters.  
‘\*’.before.the.next.port.command,.and.so.on.up.to.four.ports..For.instance,.to.  
switch.on.ports.1.and.2.in.the.first.power.switch,.the.command.line.would.be:  
6. Enter.the.Power control sequences.in.the.Power.On.and.Power.Off.fields.  
7. Click.OK.to.close.the.dialog.and.then.click.the.Save.button.in.the.main.Host.

When using the viewer window  
Using the viewer window  
The.viewer.window.gives.you.the.ability.to.view.and.control.the.AdderView.  
CATxIP.1000.and.its.host.computer(s)..Its.operation.is.almost.identical.regardless.  
of.whether.you.used.the.VNC.viewer.or.your.Web.browser.to.display.it.  
What is the best screen resolution to use?  
The.best.resolution.for.your.computer.is.one.that.is.larger.than.the.screen.of.the.host.  
computer.that.you.are.viewing..This.will.allow.you.to.see.everything.without.scrolling.  
around..Alternatively,.the.VNC.viewer.can.be.set.to.scale.the.image.to.fit.your.screen,.  
but.remember.that.some.pixel.dithering.effect.will.be.seen.when.scaling.is.used..

How do I navigate around a larger screen?  
If.the.screen.that.you.are.viewing.has.a.larger.resolution.than.your.viewing.window.  
you.will.need.to.scroll.around.to.see.all.items..The.viewer.window.allows.you.to.

Auto calibrate  
Re-synchronise mouse .  
When.you.visit.a.host.computer.for.the.very.first.time,.your.viewer.needs.to.  
determine.the.optimum.video.and.mouse.settings.for.that.particular.computer..  
The.button.will.remind.you.to.click.it.by.flashing.red.when.a.new.computer.  
screen.is.encountered..Performing.this.step.is.important.because.it.can.help.  
to.decrease.unnecessary.video.information.being.sent.across.the.link,.thus.  
improving.overall.performance.  
If.you.find.that.your.local.mouse.pointer.and.that.of.the.host.are.not.correctly.  
synchronised,.use.this.feature.to.re-align.their.movements..This.operation.is.also.  
selectable.from.the.Controls.menu.  
To re-synchronise the mouse  
1. Use.the.Hosts.button.to.select.the.required.computer.  
2. Click.the. .button.and.then.click.OK.in.the.subsequent.pop-up.message.  
Once.this.has.been.done,.providing.you.use.the.‘Hosts’.button.to.switch.  
Note: If you find that this doesn’t work, you may need to perform a mouse  
calibration again.  
between.host.computers,.the.video.settings.for.each.machine.will.be.re-used.  
Note: When performing an auto calibration, ensure that the screen image  
is static (no moving images) and also try to remove any on-screen displays  
generated by KVM switches (such as host names or menus). This is because  
they can affect the calibration process and result in a lower overall performance  
level. For mouse calibration, ensure that there are no application windows  
located around the upper left corner of the screen. This is because as the mouse  
calibration takes place, the cursor may change (to match the application as it  
skims across the window) and this may confuse the calculation. Also ensure that  
the host computer does not have the mouse cursor trails option enabled.

noise.filter.that.differentiates.  
between.valid.video.signals.  
and.background.noise.or.  
interference..This.has.the.  
effect.of.reducing.unnecessary.  
video.signals.between.the.  
AdderView.CATxIP.1000.  
and.the.remote.system,.thus.  
improving.performance..  
Note: Before using the ‘Calibrate All’ option, if possible, remove on-screen  
display (OSD) elements generated by the AdderView CATxIP 1000 (such as  
a host name label or menu). These OSD elements use different video rates  
to those of the host system(s) and can affect the setting of the automatic  
threshold value. AdderView CATxIP 1000 uses an improved calculation  
procedure to filter out the effect of these elements. However, best results  
are obtained when the screen contains only host system information.  
Note: To maximise performance, the threshold level is automatically  
increased by 50% when a slow link is detected.  
Phase  
The.phase.setting.adjusts.the.  
alignment.of.the.host.video.  
output.and.the.remote.system.  
video.display.to.achieve.the.  
sharpest.image.  
Note: When the AdderView CATxIP 1000 is used with one or more other  
switches, the threshold needs to be higher than 32 due to the significant  
amounts of ‘noise’ that these switches introduce. The AdderView CATxIP  
1000 configuration should detect such noise and adjust the threshold  
accordingly. .

VNC Port  
MAC Address  
This.is.the.logical.link.through.which.communications.with.a.remote.VNC.viewer.  
will.be.channelled.(see.What is a port?)..The.default.setting.is.5900.which.is.  
a.widely.recognised.port.number.for.use.by.VNC.software..However,.in.certain.  
circumstances.it.may.be.advantageous.to.alter.this.number.-.see.Security issues  
with ports.for.more.details..  
Media.Access.Control.address.–.this.is.the.unique.and.unchangeable.code.that.  
was.hard.coded.within.your.AdderView.CATxIP.1000.unit.when.it.was.built..It.  
consists.of.six.2-digit.hexadecimal.(base.16).numbers.separated.by.colons..A.  
section.of.the.MAC.address.identifies..the.manufacturer,.while.the.remainder.is.  
effectively.the.unique.electronic.serial.number.of.your.particular.unit...  
Note: The VNC port and HTTP port can be set to the same port number in order  
to simplify router and firewall configuration. If this is done then the AdderView  
CATxIP 1000 will “listen” for both types of traffic on the single port.  
Use DHCP  
DHCP.stands.for.‘Dynamic.Host.Configuration.Protocol’..Its.function.is.  
particularly.useful.when.connecting.to.medium.size.or.larger.networks,.such.  
as.the.Internet..When.this.option.is.selected,.your.AdderView.CATxIP.1000.will.  
attempt.to.locate.a.DHCP.server.on.the.network..If.such.a.server.is.located,.it.  
will.supply.three.things.to.the.AdderView.CATxIP.1000:.an.IP.address,.an.IP.  
network.mask.(also.known.as.a.Subnet.mask).and.a.Gateway.address..These.  
are.not.usually.granted.permanently,.but.on.a.‘lease’.basis.for.a.fixed.amount.  
of.time.or.for.as.long.as.the.AdderView.CATxIP.1000.remains.connected.and.  
switched.on..Discover allocations.  
HTTP Port  
This.is.the.logical.link.through.which.communications.with.a.remote.web.  
browser.will.be.channelled..The.default.setting.of.80.is.an.established.standard.  
for.web.(HTTP.–.HyperText.Transfer.Protocol).traffic.though.this.can.be.changed.  
to.suit.your.local.network.requirements.  
Clear IP Access Control  
This.option.removes.all.entries.from.the.IP.access.control.feature.within.the.  
AdderView.CATxIP.1000..The.IP.access.control.feature.(configurable.by.a.global.  
admin.user).allows.certain.network.address.ranges.to.be.denied.access.to.the.  
AdderView.CATxIP.1000..If.set.incorrectly,.it.is.possible.to.exclude.all.network.  
users.and.so.this.option.provides.an.emergency.recovery.point...  
IP Address  
This.is.the.identity.of.the.AdderView.CATxIP.1000.within.a.network..The.IP.  
address.can.be.thought.of.as.the.telephone.number.of.the.AdderView.CATxIP.  
1000..Unlike.the.MAC.address,.the.IP.address.can.be.altered.to.suit.the.network.  
to.which.it.is.connected..It.can.either.be.entered.manually.or.configured.

Network configuration  
To get here  
1. Using.VNC.viewer.or.a.browser,.log.on.as.the.‘admin’.user.  
This.page.allows.you.to.configure.the.various.aspects.of.the.IP.port.and.its.  
relationship.with.the.local.network.  
2. Click.the.‘Configure’.button.in.the.top.right.corner.  
3. Click.the.‘Network.Configuration’.option.  
IP Address  
This.is.the.identity.of.the.AdderView.CATxIP.1000.within.a.network..The.IP  
address.can.be.thought.of.as.the.telephone.number.of.the.AdderView.CATxIP.  
1000..Unlike.the.MAC.address,.the.IP.address.can.be.altered.to.suit.the.network.  
to.which.it.is.connected..It.can.either.be.entered.manually.or.configured.  
automatically.using.the.DHCP.option..When.the.DHCP.option.is.enabled,.this.  
entry.is.greyed.out.  
IP Network Mask  
Also.often.called.the.subnet-mask,.this.value.is.used.alongside.the.IP.address.  
to.help.define.a.smaller.collection.(or.subnet).of.devices.on.a.network..In.this.  
way.a.distinction.is.made.between.locally.connected.devices.and.ones.that.are.  
reachable.elsewhere,.such.as.on.the.wider.Internet..This.process.helps.to.reduce.  
overall.traffic.on.the.network.and.hence.speed.up.connections.in.general.  
IP Gateway  
This.is.the.address.of.the.device.that.links.the.local.network.(to.which.the.  
AdderView.CATxIP.1000.is.connected).to.another.network.such.as.the.wider.  
Internet..Usually.the.actual.gateway.is.a.network.switch.or.router.and.it.will.be.  
used.whenever.a.required.address.lies.outside.the.current.network...  
VNC Port  
MAC address  
This.is.the.logical.link.through.which.communications.with.a.remote.VNC.viewer.  
will.be.channelled.(see.What is a port?)..The.default.setting.is.5900.which.is.  
a.widely.recognised.port.number.for.use.by.VNC.software..However,.in.certain.  
circumstances.it.may.be.advantageous.to.alter.this.number.-.see.‘Security.issues.  
with.ports’.for.more.details...  
Media.Access.Control.address.–.this.is.the.unique.and.unchangeable.code.that.  
was.hard.coded.within.your.AdderView.CATxIP.1000.unit.when.it.was.built..It.  
consists.of.six.2-digit.hexadecimal.(base.16).numbers.separated.by.colons..A.  
section.of.the.MAC.address.identifies.the.manufacturer,.while.the.remainder.is.  
effectively.the.unique.electronic.serial.number.of.your.particular.unit...  
HTTP Port  
Use DHCP  
This.is.the.logical.link.through.which.communications.with.a.remote.web.  
browser.will.be.channelled.(see.What is a port?)..The.default.setting.of.80.is.an.  
established.standard.for.web.(HTTP.–.HyperText.Transfer.Protocol).traffic.though.  
this.can.be.changed.to.suit.your.local.network.requirements.  
DHCP.is.an.acronym.for.‘Dynamic.Host.Configuration.Protocol’..Its.function.is.  
particularly.useful.when.connecting.to.medium.size.or.larger.networks,.such.  
as.the.Internet..When.this.option.is.selected,.your.AdderView.CATxIP.1000.will.  
attempt.to.locate.a.DHCP.server.on.the.network..If.such.a.server.is.located,.it.  
will.supply.three.things.to.the.AdderView.CATxIP.1000:.an.IP.address,.an.IP.  
network.mask.(also.known.as.a.Subnet.mask).and.a.Gateway.address..These.  
are.not.usually.granted.permanently,.but.on.a.‘lease’.basis.for.a.fixed.amount.  
of.time.or.for.as.long.as.the.AdderView.CATxIP.1000.remains.connected.and.  
switched.on..Discover allocations.  
IP Access Control  
This.section.allows.you.to.optionally.specify.ranges.of.addresses.which.will.or.  
won’t.be.granted.access.to.the.AdderView.CATxIP.1000..If.this.option.is.left.  
unchanged,.then.the.default.entry.of.‘+0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0’.ensures.that.access.from.  
all.IP.addresses.will.be.permitted..See.Setting IP access control.for.details..

Setting IP access control  
The.golden.rule.with.this.feature.is.‘Include.before.you.exclude’.or.to.put.it.  
another.way.‘Arrange.allowed.addresses.in.the.list.before.the.denied.addresses’..  
To define a new IP access control entry  
1. Click.the.Add.button.to.display.a.popup.dialog:  
This.is.because.the.positions.of.entries.in.the.list.are.vitally.important..Once.a.  
range.of.addresses.is.denied.access,.it.is.not.possible.to.make.exceptions.for.  
particular.addresses.within.that.range..For.instance,.if.the.range.of.addresses.  
from.A.to.F.are.denied.access.first,.then.the.address.C.could.not.be.granted.  
access.lower.down.the.list..Address.C.needs.to.be.placed.in.the.list.before.the.  
denied.range.  
IMPORTANT: This feature should be configured with extreme caution as it is  
possible to deny access to everyone. If such an error occurs, see Clearing IP  
access control for details about how to regain access.

of.the.range.  
Enter.an.IP.network.mask.  
that.indicates.the.range.of.  
addresses.that.are.to.be.

Appendix 6 – Addresses, masks and ports  
Net masks  
IP.address,.network.masks.and.ports.are.all.closely.linked.in.the.quest.for.one.  
The.net.mask.(or.sub-net.mask).informs.a.device.as.to.its.own.position.within.a.  
device.to.find.another.across.disparate.network.links.  
network..From.this.it.can.determine.whether.any.other.device.is.within.the.same.  
local.network.or.is.situated.further.afield.  
IP addresses  
Taking.the.telephone.number.analogy.given.in.the.IP.address.section,.in.order.  
to.use.the.telephone.system.efficiently,.it.is.vital.for.you.to.know.your.location.  
relative.to.the.person.you.are.calling..In.this.way.you.avoid.dialling.unnecessary.  
numbers...  
As.a.rough.analogy,.consider.how.you.use.the.telephone.system..The.phone.  
number.for.Adder.Technology.in.the.UK.is.0044 (0)1954 780044..This.number.  
consists.of.three.distinct.parts:  
When.one.network.device.needs.to.talk.to.another,.the.first.thing.that.it.will.  
do.is.a.quick.calculation.using.its.own.IP.address,.the.other.devices.IP.address.  
and.its.own.net.mask..Suppose.a.device.with.address.192.168.142.154.and.  
net.mask.255.255.255.0 needed.to.communicate.with.a.device.at.address.  
192.168.142.22..The.sending.device.would.perform.several.calculations:  
•. 0044.connects.from.another.country.to.the.UK  
•. (0)1954.selects.the.main.telephone.exchange.in.the.Bar.Hill.area.of.  
Cambridgeshire,.and  
•. 780044.is.the.unique.code.for.Adder.Technology.within.Bar.Hill.  
The.important.parts.of.the.whole.number.depend.on.where.you.are..If.you.were.  
based.in.the.same.local.area.as.Adder.Technology,.there.would.be.no.point.  
in.dialling.out.of.the.UK,.or.even.out.of.the.area..The.only.part.of.the.whole.  
number.that.you.are.interested.in.is.the.final.part:.780044.

Address  
is local  
When.two.network.devices.communicate.with.each.other,.they.always.“dial.the.  
whole.number”.regardless.of.their.respective.locations.in.a.network..However,.  
they.still.need.to.know.whether.the.other.device.is.local.to.them.or.not,.and.this.  
is.where.the.net.mask.comes.into.play.  
1.The.net.mask.is.used.to.determine.the.local.and.global.parts.of.the.senders.IP.  
address..Where.there.is.255.in.the.mask,.the.corresponding.address.slips.through,.  
where.there.is.a.0,.it.is.blocked.  
2.Where.the.net.mask.was.0,.the.corresponding.part.of.the.result.is.also.zero.-.this.  
section.is.now.known.to.be.the.local.part.of.the.IP.address.  
3.The.same.process.is.carried.out.for.the.destination.address,.again.using.the.senders.  
net.mask..Now.the.local.parts.of.both.addresses.have.been.equalised.to.zero,.because.  
their.values.are.not.important.in.determining.whether.they.are.both.in.the.same.local.  
network....  
4.The.results.of.the.two.net.mask.operations.are.now.compared,.if.they.match,.the.  
destination.is.local..If.not,.then.the.sender.will.still.use.the.same.full.destination.IP.  
address.but.will.also.flag.the.message.to.go.via.the.local.network.gateway.and.out.  
into.the.wider.world..  
The.reason.for.doing.this?.It.makes.the.network,.as.a.whole,.much.more.  
efficient..If.every.message.for.every.recipient.was.shoved.straight.out.onto.the.  
Internet,.the.whole.thing.would.grind.to.a.halt.within.seconds..Net.masks.keep.

Net masks - the binary explanation  
To.really.understand.the.operation.of.a.net.mask.it.is.necessary.to.delve.deeper.  
into.the.life.blood.of.computers.–.binary;.this.is.native.digital,.where.everything.  
is.either.a.1.(one).or.0.(zero),.on.or.off,.yes.or.no..  
The.net.mask.operation.described.on.the.previous page.is.known.as.a.‘bit-wise.  
AND.function’..The.example.of.255.255.255.0.is.handy.because.the.last.octet.  
is.completely.zero.and.is.“clean”.for.illustrative.purposes..However,.actual.net.  
mask.calculations.are.carried.out,.not.on.whole.decimal.numbers,.but.bit.by.bit.  
on.binary.numbers,.hence.the.term.‘bit-wise’..In.a.real.local.network,.a.net.mask.  
might.be.255.255.255.240..Such.an.example.would.no.longer.be.quite.so.clear,.  
until.you.look.at.the.net.mask.in.its.binary.form:  
. 11111111.11111111.11111111.11110000  
In.this.case,.the.four.zeroes.at.the.end.of.the.net.mask.indicate.that.the.local.  
part.of.the.address.is.formed.by.only.the.last.four.bits..If.you.use.the.diagram.  
from.the.previous.example.and.insert.the.new.net.mask,.it.will.have.the.  
following.effect.on.the.final.result:  
Decimal octet prior to AND  
operation with net mask  
154  
192 168 142 154  
192 168 142 144  
Binary equivalent of ꢀꢄꢃ

Inside a bit-wise AND function  
When.you.“open.up”.the.last.octet.  
of.the.net.mask.and.look.at.the.  
binary.inside,.you.can.see.the.last.  
four.zero.bits.preventing.any.1s.in.  
the.address.from.falling.through..  
10010000  
Binary octet after AND  
operation with net mask  
Decimal equivalent of ꢀ00ꢀ0000  
144  
Thus,.when.154.is.bit-wise ANDed.with.240,.the.result.is.144..Likewise,.any.  
local.address.from.192.168.142.144.through.to.192.168.142.159.would.  
produce.exactly.the.same.result.when.combined.with.this.net.mask,.hence.they.  
would.all.be.local.addresses..However,.any.difference.in.the.upper.three.octets.  
or.the.upper.four.bits.of.the.last.octet.would.slip.through.the.mask.and.the.  
address.would.be.flagged.as.not.being.local.....

Calculating the mask for IP access control  
The.permissible.mask.values.(for.all.octets).are.as.follows:.  
The.IP.access.control.function.uses.a.standard.IP.address.and.a.net.mask.  
notation.to.specify.both.single.locations.and.ranges.of.addresses..In.order.to.  
use.this.function.correctly,.you.need.to.calculate.the.mask.so.that.it.accurately.  
encompasses.the.required.address(es).  
Mask octet  
255  
Binary  
Number of addresses encompassed  
1 address

10000000.  
00000000.  
254  
2 addresses.  
Single locations  
252  
4 addresses  
Some.of.the.simplest.addresses.to.allow.or.deny.are.single.locations..In.this.case.  
you.enter.the.required.IP.address.into.the.‘Network/Address’.field.and.simply.  
enter.the.‘Mask’.as.255.255.255.255.(255 used throughout the mask means  
that every bit of the address will be compared and so there can only be one  
unique address to match the one stated in the ‘Network/Address’ field).  
248  
8 addresses  
240  
16 addresses  
224  
32 addresses  
192  
64 addresses  
128  
128 addresses  
256 addresses  
All locations  
The.other.easy.setting.to.make.is.ALL.addresses,.using.the.mask.0.0.0.0..As.  
standard,.the.IP.access.control.section.includes.the.entry:. 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0  
0
+
If.the.access.control.range.that.you.need.to.define.is.not.possible.using.one.  
address.and.one.mask,.then.you.could.break.it.down.into.two.or.more.entries..  
Each.of.these.entries.could.then.use.smaller.ranges.(of.differing.sizes).that,.  
when.combined.with.the.other.entries,.cover.the.range.that.you.require.  
The.purpose.of.this.entry.is.to.include.all.IP.addresses..It.is.possible.to.similarly.  
exclude.all.addresses,.however,.take.great.care.not.to.do.this.as.you.instantly.  
render.all.network.access.void..There.is.a.recovery procedure.should.this.occur..  
Address ranges  
For.instance,.to.accurately.encompass.the.range.in.the.earlier.example:  
Although.you.can.define.ranges.of.addresses,.due.to.the.way.that.the.mask.  
operates,.there.are.certain.restrictions.on.the.particular.ranges.that.can.be.set..  
For.any.given.address.you.can.encompass.neighbouring.addresses.in.blocks.of.  
either.2,.4,.8,.16,.32,.64,.128,.etc..and.these.must.fall.on.particular.boundaries..  
For.instance,.if.you.wanted.to.define.the.local.address.range:.  
192.168.142.67 to 192.168.142.93.  
You.would.need.to.define.the.following.six.address.and.mask.combinations.in.  
the.IP.access.control.section:  
Network/address entry Mask entry  
192.168.142.67 to 192.168.142.93.  
192.168.142.67  
192.168.142.68  
192.168.142.72  
192.168.142.80  
192.168.142.88  
192.168.142.93  
255.255.255.255  
255.255.255.252  
255.255.255.248  
255.255.255.248  
255.255.255.252  
255.255.255.255  
defines 1 address (.67)  
The.closest.single.block.to.cover.the.range.would.be.the.32.addresses.from:.  
192.168.142.64 to 192.168.142.95..  
defines 4 addresses (.68 to .71)  
defines 8 addresses (.72 to .79)  
defines 8 addresses (.80 to .87)  
defines 4 addresses (.88 to .92)  
defines 1 address (.93)  
The.mask.needed.to.accomplish.this.would.be:.255.255.255.224..  
When.you.look.at.the.mask.in.binary,.the.picture.becomes.a.little.clearer..The.  
above.mask.has.the.form:.11111111.11111111.11111111.11100000.  
Ignoring.the.initial.three.octets,.the.final.six.zeroes.of.the.mask.would.ensure.  
that.the.32.addresses.from..64.(01000000).to..95.(01011111).would.all.be.  
treated.in.the.same.manner..See.Net masks - the binary explanation.for.  
details........  
When.defining.a.mask,.the.important.rule.to.remember.is:  
There must be no ‘ones’ to the right of a ‘zero’..  
For.instance,.(ignoring.the.first.three.octets).you.could.not.use.a.mask.that.had.  
11100110 because.this.would.affect.intermittent.addresses.within.a.range.in.an.  
impractical.manner..The.same.rule.applies.across.the.octets..For.example,.if.you.  
have.zeroes.in.the.third.octet,.then.all.of.the.fourth.octet.must.be.zeroes..

Ports  
Security issues with ports  
The.settings.of.port.numbers.become.important.when.the.AdderView.CATxIP.  
1000.is.situated.behind.a.network.firewall..In.order.for.a.remote.VNC.viewer.or.  
web.browser.to.make.contact.with.your.AdderView.CATxIP.1000,.it.is.necessary.  
for.the.firewall.to.allow.communication.through.a.particular.numbered.port.to.  
occur..  
If.you.accept.the.analogy.of.IP addresses.being.rather.like.telephone.numbers,.  
then.think.of.ports.as.extension.numbers..In.a.company.of.any.size,.you.  
generally.wouldn’t.expect.the.accounts.department.to.share.the.same.telephone.  
with.the.technical.department..Although.their.calls.may.all.be.related.to.the.  
same.company,.they.concern.very.different.aspects.of.that.company..  
One.specific.function.of.firewalls.is.to.restrict.access.to.ports.in.order.to.prevent.  
malicious.attackers.using.them.as.a.route.into.your.network..Every.new.port.  
that.is.opened.offers.a.new.possibility.for.hackers.and.so.the.number.of.  
accessible.ports.is.purposefully.kept.to.a.minimum..In.such.cases,.it.may.be.  
advantageous.to.change.one.or.both.AdderView.CATxIP.1000.ports.to.use.the.  
same.number..The.other.alternative.is.to.place.the.AdderView.CATxIP.1000.unit.  
outside.the.firewall.and.take.full.advantage.of.its.secure.operation.features.–.see.  
Networking issues.for.details.  
It.is.the.same.with.IP.network.connections..Although.you.have.only.one.network.  
link.into.your.computer.and.only.one.IP.address.(phone.number),.you.are.  
probably.performing.many.different.tasks.through.that.one.link,.often.at.the.  
same.time..Thus,.when.you.browse.the.web.your.outgoing.requests.and.the.  
incoming.information.are.all.channelled.through.port.80..When.you.send.an.  
email,.it.travels.through.port.25.and.when.you.transfer.files.you.are,.without.  
knowing.it,.using.port.20.  
At.the.“border.crossing”.between.the.wider.Internet.and.every.local.network.  
attached.to.it,.there.is.a.router.that.is.usually.combined.with.a.firewall..One.of.  
its.main.tasks.is.to.direct.incoming.traffic.to.the.correct.place.within.its.local.  
network..A.key.piece.of.information.to.help.it.do.this.is.the.port.number:.  
IMPORTANT: The correct configuration of routers and firewalls requires  
advanced networking skills and intimate knowledge of the particular network.

Appendix 8 – Hotkey sequence codes  
These.codes.are.used.when.defining.hotkey.switching.sequences.(macros).for.  
host.computers.and.allow.you.to.include.almost.any.of.the.special.keys.on.the.  
keyboard...  
Permissible key presses  
Creating macro sequences  
Hot.key.macro.sequences.can.be.up.to.256.characters.long..All.keys.are.  
assumed.to.be.released.at.the.end.of.a.line,.however,.you.can.also.determine.  
that.a.key.is.pressed.and.released.within.a.sequence..Any.of.the.following.three.  
examples.will.send.a.command.that.emulates.and.a.press.and.release.of.the.  
Scroll.Lock.key:.
