System Configuration Section
Network
This section is for entering the specific network settings needed for the FaxFinder to run on your
network. By factory default, the FaxFinder ships with the IP address 192.168.2.1 for setup purposes.
After setup and prior to connecting to your live network, enter the needed parameters for proper
operation on the network where the FaxFinder is to operate.
Hostname
Enter the hostname that will be associated with this FaxFinder unit. This is what will be used in
conjunction with Store and Forward faxing through email. The Fax server will check the hostname
entered here and in Fax Configuration | Store & Forward Fax (T.37): Additional Hosts. If an email comes
from an email client not listed in either of these locations, that email will be rejected.
IP Address
Enter the IP address that has been set for this FaxFinder unit. If you are setting this FaxFinder up for the
first time, remember that once this has been changed, you will have to be on the same network to make
further changes.

though your network may be different.

is what allows the FaxFinder to contact network addresses outside of the local network. This is
necessary for contacting an internet time server or SMTP server.

addresses.
