Using the IH Browser to Manage your Radios
The
RadioLinx Industrial Hotspot Browser
(IH Browser) finds RLX2-IHx series radios
connected to the network. It displays the radio’s status and basic settings.
You can use the IH Browser to perform a number of tasks, including:
View all the radios connected through the
network to your PC in either a list (table) or
topology view.
Launch the PC’s web browser to log into the
radio to configure or check diagnostics for
your radio.
Assign a temporary IP address to a radio.
Show the Event Log with a history of events
that occurred on the radio.
Update the firmware in the radio.
Send a ping command to a radio or other IP
address.
View a list of client radios.
View a list of wired Ethernet nodes
connected to the network.
View a list of all the access points detected
on the network (including those from other
vendors)
View a list of all the active interface ports on
the radio.
View the radio’s properties.
View the radio’s Event Log.

Viewing the Radios in the IH Browser
Start the IH Brower: see Starting the IH Browser (page 21). If the radio is powered up
and connected, it appears in the IH Browser. Note that the
MAC
address is the same
address as that of the label on the radio. The
List
view (shown in the image below)
displays the RLX2-IHx series radios (or previous generation RLXIB radios, except the
RLCIB-IHN) on the same network as the computer running the IH Browser.
Note: You can perform many common tasks by right-clicking on the radio and choosing a command.
