Hardware Instruction Manual – DXLink™ Twisted Pair Transmitters/Receiver
TCP/IP Address Configuration
DXLink Modules support IPV4 network addresses, gateway addresses, DNS server addresses, and network names. They also
support NDP (NetLinx Discovery Protocol) capabilities as well as IP discovery via NetLinx Studio.
NOTE:
NDP is a device discovery method used by NetLinx Masters. With NDP Beacon enabled, the Master will transmit NDP Beacons
for AMX’s proprietary device discovery.
Telnet IP Configuration Commands
The SET IP and GET IP Telnet commands listed in the tables in Appendix B (which start on page 92) can be sent directly to the
device via a Telnet terminal session. These commands can be used for initial network configuration of the DXLink Modules.
The default Telnet port is 23.
Telnet is enabled by default.
A value of 0 disables the telnet server.*
For details, see “Appendix B – Telnet (Terminal) Commands” on page 91. The appendix also includes a section on “Master
Connection Modes” on page 98.
* If you set the Telnet port to “0” to disable it, you will need to perform a factory reset using the ID Pushbutton to re-enable it (see
page 57).
