Multiple IP access

[Home]

The current TIPPO module will only allow single access at any one time. So for example if you have two WIZ comforts or two Prontos\'s etc then you would have to have two UCM\'s.

I think Tippo do now provide a multiple access unit......

Yes, they do. it is something we are looking at

Multiple IP access is possible but is a bad idea for security
If a second connection is made that connection can use all the rights of the user already logged in without having to log in themselves

Hi Chiu

Can you explain this scenario a bit more?

What would constrain the two or more connections to share the same logon/security and can this not be solved by any design you come up with?

Can only one user be signed into Comfort at any one time?

etc

I\'d like to understand the ground rules here.

Regards

The ethernet module has a single serial connection to the \"rs232\" port of the ucm
When you connect via ethernet you need to login to the ucm
If a 2nd connection is allowed on the Ethernet port then that is Also connected to the same serial port of the ucm and the new connection can send commands even though it has not logged in and could even disarm the security system

The ucm will not know that the commands are sent by different connections

I think this is similar to Clinton\'s Server software. Whichever connection is first made by the Server, that connection\'s rights will be inherited by ALL other subsequent connections.

So if we continue to use a UCM\'s with single access can we please hae some way of notification that tht UCM is in use.

DS manager does this ........

I am talking about from comfigurator or when accessing wiz comfort, or the home server etc.
