Chapter 5: Using Serial Server Manager
Step 5: Enter the IP Address assigned to the desired Serial Server or click “Search all reachable servers,” then click “OK.” IP
Address is used to find Serial Server units that are not on the same subnet. (Routers on the network will block the stan-
dard broadcast used to find servers if Search all reachable servers is selected.) The user must set an IP address that con-
forms to the LAN addressing scheme.
The Searching window is shown until all active Serial Servers on the LAN are listed in the Serial Server List window.
5.5 Configure Server Properties
The Server Properties window displays the current configuration properties for the currently selected server.
Step 6: To open the Server Properties window, highlight the Serial Server in the Serial Server List window, double-click to open.
The Server Properties window is used to configure and store the Server configuration settings. Details for setting Properties are
described in the next chapter.

Step 8: Click “Yes” to restart. A dialog box will appear indicating that the server is restarting, then a dialog box will ask whether
you want to search for all reachable servers again.
Step 9: Click “Yes.”
After the port has been updated, you may want to re-enter Server Properties to verify the changes have taken effect, or to view/
change the configuration of other ports. Each port must be configured separately.
