10/100BaseT Ethernet connectivity provides enhanced management and
configuration capabilities. The RJ-45 connector on the unit can be directly
connected to a standard 10/100BaseT Ethernet network.
If your network does not have a DHCP server, you will need to manually
configure an IP address via the serial port using the Command Line
Interface (see appendix C, Using the Command Line Interface ).
For more information about the IP network address and the visual
management system, refer to the chapter 3, Quantum Visual Manager .
Ethernet capabilities include Telnet, FTP, and an HTTP (web browser)
support for configuration and management.

The 3-pin connector on the back panel of the TC2201E provides a serial
port that is compatible with RS-232 signaling levels. The TC2201E is
designed to communicate with a terminal or any operating system
utilizing a terminal emulator. The baud rate, data bits, stop bits, parity,
and flow control of both the TC2201E and the host system must use the
same settings. Refer to appendix C for more information on serial
management.
Note:
For manual configuration of the IP address, the TC2201E’s
default IP address is 1.1.1.1 but this is technically not a valid IP
address. It is recommended that you change the setting to a
valid address, as described in appendix C .
