Custom settings configuration
To customize the settings of a Guardian Air device, you can load a configuration file from a FAT32-formatted USB drive. Supported parameters include static IP address, gateway, DNS, proxy servers, and NTP servers for time synchronization.
Overview
Within certain limitations, it is possible to customize the configuration of a Guardian Air device. To do this, you must copy a configuration file to a FAT32-formatted universal serial bus (USB) pendrive. Then, before you power-on the device, you must connect the USB pendrive to one of the USB ports on the device.
