17 +Crestron devices that support SSL require the use of a secure connection between the processor and the device. In order to establish this secure connection, the processor must have authentication enabled and there must be a user on the processor with "Connects" group permissions. The device connecting to the processor must be configured to use these credentials before the processor is added to the IP table, otherwise the device's IP address will be blocked by the processor (see [[our FAQ on how to resolve this>>attach:https://wiki.chiefintegrations.com/FAQ/I%20can%27t%20connect%20to%20my%20processor%20via%20Ethernet]])

37 37  If the lighting network has a permanent DHCP server, then CEN-GWEXERs only require their IP table to be configured, though it is good practice to also record or update their hostname. If the MAC addresses for the CEN-GWEXERs are not known, then the best way to update their configuration is via USB (microUSB). If you are able to identify the CEN-GWEXERs by MAC address, then it is possible to configure these settings via Ethernet using Text Console. Whether connected to the CEN-GWEXER via USB or Ethernet, the process to configure the IP table and hostname is the same:
