About this task

Before you commission the Airwall and can access the SBH300 over the Internet, configure the Ethernet setting. To configure the SBH300 Ethernet settings complete the following steps:

Procedure

  1. Connect the Ethernet cable from SBH300 to an external router, cellular modem, or building network LAN port.
  2. Log on to the SBH300 local UI with the Wi-Fi access point. See Connecting to the SBH with the Wi-Fi access point.
  3. To configure an Ethernet cable connection, click Settings > Ethernet, and enter the necessary data as outlined in the following table:
    Table 1. SBH300 Ethernet settings
    Field Setting Notes
    Ethernet Default: On.  
    Hostname

    Default: SBH300 followed by the Ethernet MAC Address.

    You can change the Hostname, but it must be unique for each device on a network.
    Domain Name Suffix Automatically populated.  
    Ethernet MAC Address Automatically populated.  
    Auto DHCP Configure

    Default: On.

    If you want or need to use the SBH300 with a static IP address, you must set this field to Off. Obtain the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway from your IT Department and fill out the fields manually. When left to On, these fields populate automatically.
    IP Address See Auto DHCP Configure above.  
    Subnet Mask See Auto DHCP Configure above.  
    Default Gateway See Auto DHCP Configure above.  
    Auto DNS Configure

    Do not change the Auto DNS Configure setting. Airwall protection requires Auto DNS set to Off.

    Primary DNS Server

    9.9.9.9. Read-only.

    Do not change the Primary DNS Server setting. Airwall protection requires Primary DNS Server set to 9.9.9.9.

    Secondary DNS Server

    149.112.112.112. Read-only .

    Do not change the Secondary DNS Server setting. Airwall protection requires Secondary DNS Server set to 149.112.112.112.

  4. To save your changes, click Save.

What to do next

The SBH300 includes industry standard Zero Trust Security. The SBH300 requires certain ports open on the network to establish secure communications to Johnson Controls cloud services.

If you are using a building network or building owner provided wireless internet source, make sure that the network allows ports TCP 8096, UDP 10500, and UDP 53 open outbound only.
