What is a SIP?

<< < (2/4) > >>

WW3S:
and, I guess back to the original question, what is a SIP? page 100 of the manual, with the SIP password and address, do I need to set those if not using web access?

dj0qn:
I think we are going in circles, I answered that already. Maybe I am just not clear enough:

1) Each RRC needs a unique IP number. If you are not using a router, I would use the default
    subnet and just change the last part of the IP number for the second set. Using a Class A
    subnet is just adding additional unnecessary work and adding potential issues.

2) Each SET of RRC's needs its own set of three three UDP (SIP) ports. For example, one set uses
    13000, 13001 & 13002, the second one 13003, 13004 and 13005

3) If you are not addressing the radio RRC's from outside of the network, then you can leave all web
    ports at port 80.

If this is still not clear, then call me after 11 am EDT at 424-288-9171 and I will try to explain by phone.

Thanks Mitch, I appreciate you taking my phone call. I suspect you are correct on the proxy server preventing access thru a web interface, I tried to turn it off, but since its a managed network managed by the county IT dept, I dont have admin privilges to turn it off.....so I have the units here at home now.....say I wanted to start from scratch, and change the IP addresses.....can I configure it here at home on a 192.168.1.XXX and when I take it back to our network at the county, will it work?

dj0qn:
Hi Jamie,

Yes, I am sure that is the problem with your browsers. You were trying to use a proxy server that wasn't
there.

I am a bit concerned about the IP addresses. If the people there told you to use that address range, there
may be a reason for it. The 192.1.0.XXX range will work fine, but maybe they are managing the network.
Since you really didn't know, I can't say for sure either way.

To be on the safe side, move your normal PC at home to a temporary IP address on that 10.X.X.X address
range and see if you can configure the RRC's that way. You can do that by going to your ethernet card's
properties and double-clicking on IPv4. Then it offers a tab for a temporary IP address and you can use
the one you had on the PC at the center.

Then you should see the RRC's with Microbit Setup Manager and be able to configure them using your
browser. If not, you can move to plan B and go to the 192.168.0.XXX subnet.

Note that you must be on the same subnet either way to configure them using a browser. The default of the
RRC's is 192.168.0.XXX and you would also have to setup a temporary IP number for that subnet, unless
coincidentally your router at home assigns that subnet through its DHCP server.

If worse comes to worse and it still doesn't work, do the following: using Setup Manager, set the RRC's to use
DHCP. Then find them on the network and then browse them. Once you are finished configuring them, change
the IP settings for each RRC for the ones you need in the center. After that you will not be able to reach them
any more, but then they should work if you configured  them correctly.

WW3S:
getting closer I think....can now browse the units when I'm on my home network.....configured them per page 107 in the manual, but confused on the SIP contact....should that be the IP for one of my units, or leave as is? And if I need to change it, is it the radio IP or the control IP?
