<p class="hcp4">HiQnet London Architect is installed on the
|
|
PC following the usual installation process. The ADSL router is a generic
|
|
ADSL router providing Internet access to the PC. Most broadband routers
|
|
today implement VPN passthrough which enables the PC to connect through
|
|
the ADSL router to the VPN server. Please check with the manufacturer
|
|
of the router or your service provider to confirm support of VPN passthrough.</p>
|
|
<p class="hcp4">Follow the setup instructions in the user manual
|
|
supplied with the ADSL router.</p>
|
|
<p class="hcp4"><span class="hcp2">BLU-80 and
|
|
VPN Router</span></p>
|
|
<p class="hcp4">The VPN router must now be set up to provide
|
|
internet access to the remote site. To configure the VPN router you will
|
|
need to connect a PC to the LAN side of the router and follow the user
|
|
manual supplied with the VPN router.</p>
|
|
<p class="hcp4"><span class="hcp6">Note: It
|
|
will be much simpler to connect to the remote site if the broadband connection
|
|
is allocated a fixed IP address by the broadband provider. For broadband
|
|
connections with a dynamically allocated IP address please see the</span>
|
|
<span class="hcp7">Dynamic IP Addresses
|
|
and Dynamic DNS</span> <span class="hcp6">section of this
|
|
documentation.</span></p>
|
|
<p class="hcp4">Once the VPN router is set up correctly, you
|
|
should have Internet access at the remote site. The next step it to configure
|
|
VPN access on the router. This process should be described in detail either
|
|
in the user manual supplied with the router or on the manufacturer’s website.</p>
|
|
<p class="hcp4">Next, using HiQnet London Architect, set the
|
|
BLU-80 to use a fixed IP address ensuring that it doesn't conflict with
|
|
the range allocated by the DHCP server or the IP addresses allocated to
|
|
VPN clients. For example, if the router uses 192.168.1.200 - 192.168.1.255
|
|
as the range for VPN clients, set the IP address of the BLU-80 to 192.168.1.100.</p>

<p class="hcp4"><span class="hcp2">HiQnet London

Architect On Site</span></p>
|
|
<p class="hcp4">While on site, the HiQnet London Architect
|
|
design file should be uploaded to the BLU-80 and the audio installation
|
|
debugged. Once satisfied that the design is complete, open the file preferences
|
|
and select the static routes tab. Next, click on the <span class="hcp2">Auto</span>
|
|
button to add the BLU-80 to the static routes: -</p>

<p class="hcp4">Save the design file to store the static routes

in the file. The remote site is now ready to be controlled and monitored

remotely via the VPN.</p>

|
|
<p class="hcp4">Now, when off site and connected to the Internet
|
|
via the generic ADSL router, the VPN connection can be used to connect
|
|
to the BLU-80. First, set up a VPN connection to the VPN router using
|
|
the the Windows <span class="hcp2">New Connection Wizard</span>
|
|
(see <span class="hcp7">Configuring
|
|
the Windows VPN Client (using PPTP)</span> section of this documentation
|
|
for further details).</p>
|
|
<p class="hcp4">You should now have a new network adapter shown
|
|
in <span class="hcp2">Network Connections</span>. To connect
|
|
to the VPN simply double click on the VPN network adapter. Enter the user
|
|
name and password you set up when configuring the VPN server: -</p>
