11 11  Typically, each CEN-GWEXER will need to be initially configured via USB (micro USB), unless their MAC addresses are already known and the lighting network has a DHCP server (either by running DHCP server software on your computer, or if the processor has a control subnet or is running the [[ShowRunner™ DHCP Server>>doc:SHOWRUNNER™ Setup Guide.Troubleshooting Guide.Advanced Tools.DHCP Server.WebHome]]).

13 -When connecting to a CEN-GWEXER for the first time, it may be necessary to manually change the connection type from "Auto" to "SSL/TLS". It is also necessary to manually edit the CEN-GWEXER's address book entry so that the connection protocol is "SSL/TLS" when a CEN-GWEXER is added to the address book using Device Discovery tool export.

17 -If the lighting network is a managed network with a permanent DHCP server (or if it is on the Control Subnet of a CP4N, ZUM-HUB4, or other Crestron processor with a dedicated Control Subnet), then the hardware can be left in DHCP mode and only the IP table and hostname should be updated:

19 -* Connect to the CEN-GWEXER via Ethernet or USB (process is the same either way)
20 -* Open Text Console in Toolbox and connect to the CEN-GWEXER
21 -** Note that you may need to manually select "SSL" connection type, as "Auto" might not always redirect
22 -* Run the following commands to configure the CEN-GWEXER's IP table and hostname
23 -** Update IP table: ##addm (% style="color:olive" %)**C1**(%%) (% style="color:orange" %)**10.0.0.10**(%%)##
24 -** Set hostname: ##host (% style="color:purple" %)**GWEXER-L1**(%%)##
25 -** Reboot the CEN-GWEXER: ##reboot##
26 -* At this point, it is a good idea to [[update the device firmware>>doc:SHOWRUNNER™ Setup Guide.SHOWRUNNER™ Installation Guide.SHOWRUNNER™ Installation and Network Setup.Updating Firmware.WebHome]]
