EZWebCon Login and Configuration

EZWebCon enables users on TCP/IP networks to log into and configure the MSS. The program offers a simple interface that prompts the user for the information necessary to configure the device server. Instructions for installing, running, and using EZWebCon are included on the CD-ROM.

Telnet

To log into the MSS, type Telnet followed by the MSS IP address. The MSS must have an IP address assigned in order for this command to work.

Serial Port Logins

Attach a terminal to the serial port and press the Return key. The Local> prompt should be displayed. Proceed to 4:Configuration to configure the unit using the command line interface.

If there is a problem during the boot process, pressing any key will display the Boot prompt. This prompt enables you to enter a special set of commands, called Boot Configuration Program (BCP) commands, which are discussed in 6:Troubleshooting.
