In the tab, you have access to the network, NTP server, and management system settings.

Network settings

Here you can turn on/off the DHCP connection and get network settings automatically or enter it manually. 

For correct panel work you must enter: 

  • panel IP address;
  • subnet mask;
  • the main gateway;
  • DNS server address;

NTP server 

NTP server data is used for time and date automatic synchronization between a panel and a server. It is essential that the device date and time match the real one for the identifiers, access restrictions, etc. to work correctly. You can check the current device date/time in a corresponding field.

Using the automatic setting of time, data will be automatically synchronized with a server via the Internet. Therefore, this option requires an Internet connection. To configure server work, complete the steps:  

  1. Tick the Set time automatically box.
  2. Enter the URL or IP address of the server that is used for synchronization.
  3. Choose the required timezone.
  4. Submit changes.

You can also set the time and date manually. To do it, you need to deactivate the Set time automatically feature then select the date, timezone and save these settings.  

Management system

In this section, you can enable/disable and configure the BAS-IP Link server for access control, management, and monitoring of devices.

To do it, you must:

  1. Log in to the device web interface. By default, the username is admin, and the password is 123456.

  2. Go to the Network tab > Management system section.

  3. Select the necessary protocol: HTTP or MQTT (is recommended to use).

  4. Enter all required data. 

  5. Submit settings.

MQTT allows organizing the interaction of BAS-IP Link with devices, which are located in different networks/subnets/behind NAT without additional settings from the network infrastructure (port forwarding, etc.) as HTTP requires. We recommend using the MQTT protocol as it is less complex, more effective, provides data security, and fast and efficient message delivery. 

MQTT protocol configuration

If you select MQTT, you must enter: 

  • management system broker address and port; 
  • password for interaction with the management system;

Also, you can activate sending real-time logs to the server. If necessary, you can enable/disable integrated message encryption or add your certificate by clicking the File field and selecting the appropriate one. Sending of heartbeat (current status: online/offline) is done by default here without the ability to enable/disable it.

If you need to get the current state of the MQTT client, go to System > Debug.

HTTP protocol configuration 

If you select HTTP, you must enter:

  • an IP address or domain name of the server where the Link software is installed;
  • device password to the server.

If necessary, you can activate sending real-time logs and heartbeat (current status: online/offline) from the panel to the server.
