Switch via infrared through an EthIR Beam to the Switch (see page 3-3, “Connectivity Choices for Using the CSI Configuration Tool”).

CSI Configuration Tool Installation

Your EthIR LAN system comes with a CSI Media Installer CD-ROM. On a PC, insert the CD-ROM into the drive and follow the on-screen prompts. This installs the Configuration Tool and icons onto your PC.

CSI Configuration Tool Functions

The Configuration Tool provides the following functions:

1.Sets the IP address of the Switch. This is usually required for the Switch to support IR/PPP devices, or be managed by SNMP.

2.Finds all the EthIR Switches on the network.

3.Updates the Switch firmware.

4.An IP Editor to configure IP addressing. The IP Editor can change the Switch’s IP address, Gateway, DNS and Proxy server IP addresses, and a pool of IP addresses. It can also be used to point to a DHCP server on the network to obtain these addresses.

The following graphic illustrates the Configuration Tool once it is started.
