Ethernet board configuration
In order to operate correctly on a network, the Ethernet Plug-In board must have a unique IP address on the
network. To do this, there are two basic methods for logging into the Xport device server to assign an IP
address and configure the module.
Method 1: Using DeviceInstaller
Assign an IP address and view the current XPort module configuration using a Graphical User Interface (GUI) on
a PC attached to a network.
DeviceInstaller is a free utility software provided by Lantronix for configure, upgrade and manages Lantronix
Device Servers. It can be downloaded from the Lantronix website at
www.lantronix.com/support/downloads
For instructions on using DeviceInstaller to configure the IP address and related settings or for more advanced
features, see the DeviceInstaller Online Help.
