Quick Patroller Overview
The NP36 Network Patroller lets you view diagnostics, check uptime and downtime, manage network
devices, and perform reboots remotely. These features save you both time and money that would
otherwise be spent on service calls.
The front panel of the NP36 displays a pair of blue LEDs. See Table 1 below for more information.

Preparing to Install the Patroller
If you have installed a managed switch before, the process of installing the NP36 will seem very familiar.
Tools required:
Phillips screwdriver (if using rack-mount brackets).
PC or laptop with Ethernet interface and a web browser (an integrated DB-9 port or USB-to-Serial
adapter may be necessary if you would like to use the console interface).
Ethernet cable.

Installation
1. Open the box and remove the unit.
2. If you are mounting the NP36 in a standard 19” A/V rack, attach the rack-mounting brackets to
the sides (rack-mounting brackets are included). If you are not rack-mounting, please ensure
that the NP36 is physically mounted near power and network connections (i.e. backbone switch
or firewall/router).
3. Connect power to the device and push the power switch on the rear panel. The PWR LED will
light up and the fans will start.
4. If you are using a Pakedge router that has an internal IP address of 192.168.1.99, you can
connect the NP36 to an available port on your router and proceed to the section titled First
Time BakPak Users. If your router is using an IP scheme of 192.168.1.X, but has an IP address
other than 192.168.1.99 then continue to step 5. If your router is using an IP scheme that is
different to 192.168.1.X, then skip to step 10.
5. Connect an Ethernet cable from the Patroller to your router.
6. Open a web browser (Mozilla Firefox is preferred). In the browser, enter the Patroller’s default IP
address of 192.168.1.237 into the address bar and press <ENTER>.
7. A web page will appear, prompting you for a username and password. Enter pakedge as the
username and pakedgep as the password. Then click Login to log into the web administration
portal.

11. Configure the PC with a static IP address of 192.168.1.10 and subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 and
then open any browser (Mozilla Firefox is preferred).
