1 Introduction
The EAP-E Ethernet access point allows access to an ETRX2 or ETRX2-PA wireless mesh
networking module via Ethernet using the Lantronix® XPort® Direct
TM
serial to Ethernet bridge
device. The Telegesis AT-Command interface - based on the EmberZNet meshing stack - can be
easily accessed by the application software using telnet or by creating a virtual COM port using the
supported Lantronix® CPR (COM Port Redirector) software for windows.
By default the EAP-E is set up to use DHCP for easy integration into most networks. Depending on
the network and firewall configuration it is possible to connect to one or more local EAP-Es via the
internet allowing remote interaction with local ZigBee® networks.
Using the Ember bootloader custom firmware and firmware upgrades can be downloaded via
Ethernet or over the air. The SIF interface also allows the EAP-E to be used as a platform for
firmware development and debugging.
The EAP-E access points also support the use of Ember’s EZSP (Ember ZigBee® Serial Protocol)
instead of the Telegesis AT Command interface.
