Lantronix XPress DR+ manual Configuration Methods

Chapter 2: Introduction

You can associate the unit's serial channel (port) with a specific TCP/UDP port number. Port number 9999 is reserved for access to the unit's Setup (configuration) Mode.

Configuration Methods

After installation, the XPress DR+ requires configuration for the unit to operate correctly on a network. There are three basic methods for logging into the XPress DR+ and editing the configurable settings.

DeviceInstaller: Configures the IP address and other network settings on the XPress DR+ using a Graphical User Interface (GUI) on a PC attached to a network.

(See Chapter 5: Using DeviceInstaller.)

Web Manager: Through a web interface, configures the XPress DR+ settings using the

Lantronix Web Manager. (See Chapter 6: Configuration Using Web Manager.)

Serial and Telnet Ports: There are two approaches to accessing Setup Mode: making a Telnet connection to the network port (9999) or connecting a terminal (or a PC running a terminal emulation program) to the unit’s serial port. To use DeviceInstaller for communication to an XPress DR+W over a wireless network, the WLAN network settings must be configured first.
