  8. Verify all the Ports 1, 2, 3, and 4 settings are correct and do not need to be changed. Any changes in network configuration after the encryption process has been performed will require a factory reset.

Process to Perform Encryption Handshake

Process to perform Encryption Handshake between devices for S/W:

A network configuration must be performed prior to Encryption Handshake. If the network configuration is performed or modified after the encryption process, then reperforming the secure encryption process is required. It is required to have information (IP address, Net Mask, and Gateway) regarding each A5:N2 prior to starting the encryption process. Table 6 must be filled out completely prior to starting this process. It is not required to have each device (A5:N2) on the common network to perform the encryption handshake. It is required to have each device (A5:N2) on the common network to "Test" the encryption handshake. This process requires the operator stations to be programmed first, then the machines in the second half.



Illustration 42g06340150
Configurations diagram

The number of stations and tractors will vary per site. The purpose of Illustration 42 is to indicate that operator stations need to be configured first.

Round 1 consists of network configurations and site configurations and will begin at station 1. The user will download an XML when finished at station 1. This XML is known as the "Site Config".

The user then moves to each additional device performing the network configuration, uploading the previous XML for encryption handshake, then downloading a new XML.

At the last device of Round 1, an XML will be generated and become known as the public key. The public key is required to be loaded on to each additional device to provide two-way communication. Round 2 will start by downloading the XML from the last machine configured in round 1 and loading the public key onto station 1, then continuing to load the public key to each additional device.

Use Table 6 to identify each A5:N2 on the Network.

Router Configuration

Configuring the Routers Radio/WAN-Side

Configuring the "Radio/WAN-Side IP Configuration" is required. The configuration is completed by accessing the Routers static web page.

Configuring Service PCs IP Address

Note: The Operator Station may not be able to communicate effectively with the machine if the customer network configuration has IP addresses that are within the same subnet as the Cat local network. The customer network should avoid having their network overlap the Cat local subnetwork. The customer should avoid using any IP within the range of 165.26.78.1 - 165.26.79.254.

Note: Refer to "Procedure for Configuring IP Address of Service PC" for more information on how to configure the service PCs IP address.

IP Address: 165.26.79.10

Subnet Mask: 255.255.0.0

Gateway: 165.26.78.1

  1. Connect the LAN wire from the service port to the Service PC.

    Note: For D10 and D11 the onboard LAN service port is under the right-hand console of the machine. The 419-5974 Adapter As and 385-8492 Cable As must be used to connect to the machine.

    Note: Off-board, the LAN service port is Ethernet I, or Ethernet II. Do not use the antenna connection port (the antenna connection port resembles an Ethernet port) to access the router web page.
