Setting up a backup console

Hey everyone, first time setting up a backup here and I'm having some troubles. I have both consoles going through a router (both read that they are on-line), disabled DHCP on the backup, and changed the IP address by 1 when I click backup it searches for the master console to no avail. I click troubleshoot and it sees the master but it has a Red slash through it. thoughts?

  • You could have some network settings off on the console. Is the router performing any routing functions or is it just for a wireless access point? DHCP turned on? If DHCP is turned on in the router, turn it off. Make sure that the router is assigned to the same IP and Subnet range as the consoles. Also make sure that both consoles have the same software version.

    IP: 10.101.100.101

    Subnet: 255.255.0.0

    Gateway: Same as IP address

     

    Backup

    IP: 10.101.100.102

    Subnet: 255.255.0.0

    Gateway: Same as IP address
