Configure the following host settings:
Setting Description
Connection Type Specifies the type of physical connection between the host
and the Primary panel.
If you are connecting from a host software system such as
WIN-PAK, select one of the following two connection
options:
Direct via TCP/IP – Host initiates connection to panel.
Reverse TCP/IP – Panel connects directly to the host sys-
tem using the TCP/IP protocol. You must enter the host IP
address in the Host IP Address field. Panel initiates con-
nection to host.
Host IP Address Enter the host system (or WIN-PAK server) IP address here
if you selected Reverse TCP/IP in the Connection Type field
on this screen.
Port Number Specifies the port number for the Ethernet port. Port 2101
is Encrypted (default). Port 3001 is Direct TCIP/IP. Reverse
TCP/IP port starts at Port 5001 and must be unique in a
WIN-PAK system for each primary panel.
TLS Security By default enabled to establish TLS encrypted communica-
tion between MPA2C3 Primary / Gateway panel and WIN-
PAK Host.
TLS encryption is available from WIN-PAK 4.9 and higher.
After enabling the TLS Security a TLS certificate must be
uploaded to the panel. To create the TLS certificate file,
browse on the WIN-PAK Server to C:\Program Files
(x86)\WINPAKPRO\Honeywell.Winpak.SSLConfigUtil-
ity.exe.
In the WIN-PAK SSL Configuration Utility dialog box, select
Create Self-Signed WIN-PAK Certificate. For more informa-
tion refer to the WIN-PAK User guide.
Disabling encryption creates a vulnerable system for IT
attacks and is not recommended.
Click Browse select the desired TLS certificate and then click Save
TLS File upload
and upload the TLS certificate to the panel.
