6: Configuration Using the Web Manager

This chapter describes how to configure the EDS using the Web Manager, Lantronix’s browser-based configuration tool. The unit’s configuration is stored in nonvolatile memory and retained without power. All changes take effect immediately, unless otherwise noted.

Accessing the Web Manager through a Web Browser

The following procedure describes how to log into the EDS using a standard Web browser.

Note: Alternatively, access the Web Manager by selecting the Web Configuration tab from DeviceInstaller (see Viewing EDS Properties on page 32).

To access Web Manager:

1.Open a standard Web browser such as Netscape Navigator 6.x and later, Internet Explorer 5.5. and later, Mozilla Suite, Mozilla Firefox, or Opera.

2.Enter the IP address of the EDS in the address bar. The EDS’s built-in security requires you to log in with your user name and password.
