To set up IP-based reporting on an EST4 system, you must configure the IP Receiver service using a 4-FWAL2 or 4-FWAL4 firewall module [1](Page 116). This service allows the control unit to communicate system events to a central monitoring station (CMS) via Ethernet [1](Page 116). 1. Install a 4-FWAL2 or 4-FWAL4 module, which supports up to eight IP Receiver services [1](Page 116). 2. Verify that ECPxml customer licensing is active for the firewall module [1](Page 113). 3. Download the EST4 Network Services Configuration Worksheet (P/N 3102627-EN) to gather IP and account settings from the CMS administrator [1](Page 116). 4. Configure the service using the 4-CU programming software [1](Page 116). 5. Consult the 4-CU Help for specific configuration instructions [1](Page 116).
