# Configuring Your Omnia XII Network (for Remote Control)

Before you can access Omnia XII from a web browser, initial network configuration must be completed using the front panel touch screen. This process establishes basic IP connectivity to your Omnia XII.

**To configure Omnia XII network settings (from the front panel):**

1. Press the Omnia XII logo in the upper left corner of the screen to reveal the menu list.

3. Select the interface (**NET 2** or **NET 3**) that you will use for management access.
4. Press the **Mode** drop-down menu, and then select either **Auto (DHCP)** or **Manual (Static)**. For initial setup, use **Manual (Static)** if a fixed IP address is required for remote access or facility addressing schemes.
5. Configure the **IP Address**, **Net Mask**, and **Gateway** for the selected interface.

> [!NOTE]
> **Note:** Omnia XII factory defaults are typically:
>

> - Net 2: Auto (DHCP)
> - Net 3: Auto (DHCP)

For each parameter, enter the corresponding value:
  1. Press the field to open the touch screen keyboard.
  2. Enter the value using the keyboard.
  3. Press **OK** to confirm (or **Cancel** to discard changes).
  4. Press **Save** to apply settings.
6. (Optional) Repeat the network configuration steps for additional interfaces as needed.

We recommend configuring the network for IP-based audio transport settings later through the web UI as it is an easier method. See *Setting up Omnia XII System Software*.
7. Set the **Host Name**:
  1. Press the **Host Name** tab.
  2. Enter the desired hostname using the on-screen keyboard.
  3. Press **OK** to confirm.
  4. Press **Save** to apply the hostname.
8. Set **DNS Servers** by pressing the DNS tab and performing these steps as needed:

To delete a DNS server:
  1. Press **Add**.
  2. Press the DNS server field to open the touch screen keyboard.
  3. Enter the DNS server IP address.
  4. Press **OK** to confirm (or Cancel to discard changes).
  5. Press **Save** to apply settings.
  1. Press the trash icon for the DNS server.
  2. Press **OK** to confirm (or Cancel to discard changes).
  3. Press **Save** to apply settings.

1. Reboot the unit to apply settings:
  1. In the touch screen, press the **Admin** menu.
  2. Press the **System** tab.
  3. Press **Reboot**.
  4. Confirm the reboot when prompted. When the unit restarts, the updated network configuration will be active.

  

At this point, Omnia XII can be accessed via the web UI using the assigned IP address. All further configuration and system management is performed through the web UI.

### Launching the Omnia XII Web UI and Logging In

Once you have configured the Omnia XII network connection, you can launch the Omnia XII web UI on a computer and log in to access remote controls.

For initial remote control, an internet connection is not required. You can launch the Omnia XII web UI when your computer or laptop are plugged into the same local network switcher, router, or studio environment as the Omnia XII.

If you are launching the web UI with no internet connection, you will create a local account to access the web UI using that account. If internet access is available, you will instead use a TelosID+ account to access the web UI.
