4: Configuration Using Web-Manager

You must configure the unit so it can communicate on a network with your serial device. For example, you must set the way the unit will respond to serial and network traffic, how it will handle serial packets, and when to start or close a connection.

The unit’s configuration is stored in nonvolatile memory and is retained without power. You can change the configuration at any time. The unit performs a reset after you change and store the configuration.

In this chapter, we describe how to configure the UDS1100 using Web-Manager, Lantronix’s browser-based configuration tool. (For information on using Setup Mode, our command line configuration interface, see 5: Configuration via Telnet or Serial Port (Setup Mode).
