Supported network services and their default network port numbers

In Digi devices that have multiple serial ports, the network port number defaults for various services are set based on the following formula:

base network port number + serial port number

For example, the Telnet Passthrough service is set to network port 2001 for serial port 1, 2002 for serial port 2, 2003 for serial port 3, etc.

If a network port is changed for a particular service, that is the only network port number that changes. That change does not carry over to the other network ports. For example, if the network port number for Telnet Passthrough is changed from 2001 to 3001, that does not mean that the other network ports will change to 3002, 3003, etc.

There are two types of network services available:

Basic services, which are accessed by connecting to a particular well-known network port.

Passthrough services, in which a particular serial port is set up for a particular type of service. To use the service, users must both use the correct protocol and specify the correct network port. For example, assuming default service ports and using a Linux host, here is how a user would access the SSH and Telnet passthrough services:

#> ssh -l fred digi16 -p 2501 #> telnet digi16 2101

X2 specifications

Digi X2 and X1 are advanced cellular IoT (Internet of Things) gateways that provide an innovative solution for industrial applications, smart cities, and remote asset management. Both devices equip users with the means to connect, monitor, and control a wide variety of assets without the limitations traditionally imposed by wired connections.

Digi X2, designed for complex IoT demands, features dual SIM slots which ensures uninterrupted connectivity through automatic failover. This makes it particularly valuable for critical applications where connectivity is non-negotiable. Additionally, the X2 is equipped with LTE-M and NB-IoT support, enabling extensive coverage in areas where other networks may struggle.

On the software side, the Digi X2 supports Digi Remote Manager, a powerful tool that allows users to monitor, manage, and deploy devices remotely. This cloud-based management system simplifies the overall management of IoT devices by providing real-time insights, easy configuration changes, and over-the-air updates, saving both time and resources.

In contrast, the Digi X1 serves as an entry-level model that balances performance with cost-effectiveness. It supports LTE connectivity, providing a reliable connection suitable for a variety of applications. The X1 also offers seamless integration with existing networks, allowing users to leverage their current infrastructure while expanding their IoT capabilities.

Both Digi X2 and X1 are designed with ruggedness in mind, making them suitable for deployment in harsh environments. They are engineered to withstand extreme temperatures and vibrations, ensuring reliability even in demanding industrial settings.

Another notable characteristic of these devices is their extensive input/output (I/O) capabilities, which enable them to interact with sensors, machines, and other types of devices. This versatility allows for a broad spectrum of applications, from monitoring temperatures in remote locations to tracking assets across geographic boundaries.

In summary, the Digi X1 and X2 provide robust, reliable, and scalable solutions for modern IoT implementations. With their advanced cellular connectivity, cloud management capabilities, and durable design, they are poised to enhance connectivity across industries, driving efficiencies and enabling smarter operations. Whether for critical industrial applications or efficient asset management, Digi's offerings are tailored to meet the diverse needs of today's IoT landscape.
