Note
The hostname can also become known to your PC via MDNS. If you cannot reach the reader via the hostname
alone, add “.local” to the end for the connection to succeed. i.e. Sargas-21071f.local. This is typical when Link
Local addressing is being used.
7.2.2.1 Accessing the Reader via Hostname
The first six characters of the MAC address are ThingMagic's manufacturer's code. The last six characters of
the MAC address are specific to the Reader and are used for automatic hostname addressing.
To log on to the Reader using the Hostname:
Obtain the Reader's hostname, launch your web browser, and then log on to the Reader by entering its
hostname in the address bar, such as http://Sargasxxxxxx (the last six characters of the Reader's MAC
address).
2. Press Enter. The Reader's Login dialog box appears.
3. Enter the following:
User name: web
Password: radio
4. Click OK. The Reader displays the Sargas Status Page.
