Quick Start: How to Connect to the NetGuardian LT G2
7
Most NetGuardian users find it easiest to give the unit an IP address, subnet and gateway through the TTY
interface to start. Once these settings are saved and you reboot the unit, you can access it over LAN to do the
rest of your databasing via the Web Browser interface.
Another option : You can skip the TTY interface by using
a LAN crossover cable directly from your PC to the NetGuardian LT G2 and access its Web Browser. See
Section 7.2 .
...via Craft Port 7.1
1. The simplest way to connect to the NetGuardian LT G2 is over a physical cable connection between your
PC's USB port and the unit's USB craft port. Note: You must be connected via craft port or Telnet to use
the TTY interface. Make sure you are using a standard A-B USB cable (this same cable is commonly used
for USB printers) to make a USB craft port connection. We'll be using HyperTerminal to connect to the
unit in the following example - however, most terminal-emulating programs are also compatible.
