The T2 clocking terminal is part of the Advanced Device and
Access Manager, which is a SaaS solution hosted on cloud
infrastructure. Therefore, the T2 must be able to connect to the
cloud infrastructure to operate properly.
While the T2 will continue to work while offline, a connection is
required to pick up employee or configuration updates, and to
send out clocking or enrolment data. Clocking data will not be
received by the Time and Attendance application until the
cloud connection is restored.
The T2 uses standard TCP/IP networking and can be config-
ured to use wired ethernet (1000/100 Mbps) or Wi-Fi b/g/n/ac
(2.4/5GHz). Whichever is chosen, the T2 can be configured to
use either a static IP address or pick up an IP address using
DHCP.
Optionally, a cellular router can be purchased to provide a net-
work connection to the T2, either over Ethernet or Wi-Fi.
No special configuration of your firewall should be necessary
providing the T2 is granted internet access. If your security
policy mandates tight control, please refer to the T2 Network
Requirements document for details.
If a MAC address is required to allow the device onto the local
network, it can be displayed on-screen once the T2 is installed
by navigating to the network settings screens.
