one
of the following:
Note:
To assign Expert settings and Security settings, you must use the
Setup Mode window in a Telnet session.
To configure the unit via a Web browser, click the
Web
icon. The Lantronix
WEB-Manager window displays in your browser.
To configure the unit via a Telnet session, click the
Telnet
icon. The Setup
Mode window displays.
2. Continue with the appropriate configuration procedure described in the next
chapter.
Note:
The Configure icon on the Device Management window allows
you to save a configuration locally on your computer as a file. It is helpful
to save the file, in case, for example, someone changes the configuration
of the unit incorrectly. The Configure icon sends a saved file to the unit.
ARP and Telnet
The unit’s IP address must be configured before a network connection is available.
If the unit has no IP address, you can use the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP)
method from UNIX and Windows-based systems to assign a temporary IP address.
If you want to initially configure the unit through the network, follow these steps:
1. On a UNIX or Windows-based host, create an entry in the host's ARP table using
the intended IP address and the hardware address of the unit, which is found on
the product label on the bottom of the unit.
Figure 2-9. ARP on UNIX
arp -s 191.12.3.77 00:20:4a:xx:xx:xx
Note:
For the ARP command to work on Windows 95, the ARP table on the
PC must have at least one IP address defined other than its own.
