3: Configuring the Unit
Hostlist:
If you enable this option,
the Lantronix unit scrolls through the hostlist until it
connects to a device listed in the hostlist table. Once it connects, the unit stops trying
to connect to any others. If this connection fails, the unit continues to scroll through
the table until it is able to connect to another IP in the hostlist. Only Channel 1
supports the hostlist option.

To use this ability, follow these steps:
1. To enable the hostlist, enter a Connect Mode of 0x20 (

a list of current entries already defined in the product.
2. To delete, modify, or add an entry, select
Yes

0.0.0.0, that entry and all others after it are deleted.
3. After completing the hostlist, repeat the previous step if necessary to edit the
hostlist again.
4. For Retrycounter, enter the number of times the Lantronix unit should try to make
a good network connection to a hostlist entry that it has successfully ARPed.
