TCP/IP Ports and Services
DIFFERENCE:
This feature is available from FW package v1.1.0b3.
The IP Port Block option is an additional protection for the
Cleartext Login (Login Settings)
feature. There
are TCP/IP ports in Lightware devices which are not protected by the login, so you can disable them if
necessary. For example, due to the working method of the LW2 communication, the Cleartext login does
not provide protection when LW2 command is sent to the device, that is why the TCP port no.10001 shall be
blocked manually.

Cleartext Login (Login Settings)
DIFFERENCE:
This feature is available from FW package v1.1.0b3.
This cleartext login tool allows setting a password for login, thus, the device will not accept any command
coming from a control interface (RS-232, Ethernet, etc…) without login. The device will be visible in the Device
Discovery window (as the device type and the serial number can be queried without login) but connection
can be established only after successful login. The login is valid until a TCP socket break in case of Ethernet
connection.
