Hardware Networking Setup

We recommend using a computer or laptop with two (2) Ethernet LAN ports.

HCC2 hardware has two (2) Ethernet LAN ports:

  • LAN 1 is configured (by default) to get network information (IP Address, routing, DNS) from a DHCP server
  • LAN 2 is configured with a fixed IP address – 192.168.1.41

Although not required, we suggest that your development computer be able to connect to at least one of the LAN ports for testing and debugging purposes.

  • Make sure that the LAN ports configuration of your hardware machine are configured in the same segments on each one of the HCC2 ports.
  • Configure the two LAN hardware adapters of your Development VM. Bridge each VM LAN to its corresponding LAN port of your hardware.

It is also possible to assign your physical HCC2 a single DHCP or static IP address and to connect, ensure that your development machine is assigned an IP address compatible to co-exist on the same network. Likewise, should you have a USB connection to the device, it is possible to connect via the IP address indicated in your host connections or EPM (the Edge Package Manager is discussed later).
