You can associate the unit's serial channel (port) with a specific TCP/UDP port number.
Port number 9999 is reserved for access to the unit's Setup (configuration) Mode.
Configuration Methods
After installation, the XPress DR+ requires configuration for the unit to operate correctly
on a network. There are three basic methods for logging into the XPress DR+ and editing
the configurable settings.
DeviceInstaller
: Configures the IP address and other network settings on the XPress
DR+ using a Graphical User Interface (GUI) on a PC attached to a network.
(See
Chapter 5: Using DeviceInstaller
.)
Web Manager
: Through a web interface, configures the XPress DR+ settings using the
Lantronix Web Manager. (See
Chapter 6: Configuration Using Web Manager
.)
Serial and Telnet Ports:
There are two approaches to accessing Setup Mode: making a
Telnet connection to the network port (9999) or connecting a terminal (or a PC running a
terminal emulation program) to the unit’s serial port. To use DeviceInstaller for
communication to an XPress DR+W over a wireless network, the WLAN network settings
must be configured first.
