ETEPs running software version 1.6 and later include support for IPv4 and IPv6 addresses on the 
management port. 

●

●

The ETEP requires an IPv4 address for proper operation, even when it is deployed in an IPv6 network. 
Enter the IPv4 address, subnet mask, and gateway that is configured on the ETEP’s management port.

IP Address and Subnet 

Mask

Enter the IPv4 address and subnet mask that has been assigned to 

the ETEP management port, in dotted decimal notation. 

Default Gateway

Specifies how to route traffic between the ETEP management port and 

the management station and/or EncrypTight ETKMS. 
When the management port is on a different subnet than the 

management station or ETKMS, specify the IP address of the router’s 

local port that is on the same subnet as the ETEP management port. 

In 

, the default gateway is 192.168.10.1 and the 

management port IP address is 192.168.10.10.
If the other devices are on the same subnet as the management port, 

you do not need to enter a default gateway.

NAT IP Address

If your network requires the use of allocated IP addresses when 

communicating over a public network, enter the Network Address 

Translation (NAT) IP address for ETEMS to use when communicating 

with the ETEP. If you use a NAT address, you must still configure the 

management port IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway.
The NAT IP address is used only by ETEMS. It is not pushed to the 

ETEP, therefore it does not appear when comparing the ETEMS and 

appliance configurations.
