Chapter 7: Configuration Using Telnet or Serial
Port (Setup Mode)
As an alternative to using a web browser, as described in the previous chapter, you can
use the following procedures remotely or locally:
Use a Telnet connection to configure the unit over the network.
Use a terminal or terminal emulation program to access the serial port locally.
The series of prompts at which you enter configuration settings is called Setup Mode.
Note: Detailed information about other setup methods is available from Lantronix
Technical Support (http://www.lantronix.com/support).
The unit’s configuration is stored in nonvolatile memory and is retained without power.
This chapter tells you how to access Setup Mode and the general procedure for using it.
To complete the configuration, continue with Chapter 8: Setup Mode: Server
Configuration, Chapter 9: Setup Mode: Channel Configuration, and Chapter 10: Setup
Mode: Advanced Settings.
Notes:
The menus in the configuration chapters show a typical device. Your device may
have different configuration options.
For the latest firmware, release notes, and user documentation, go to the Lantronix
web site (www.lantronix.com).
To use Telnet for communication to an XPress DR+W over a wireless network, you
must first configure the network and WLAN settings using a serial connection. See
Chapter 4: XPress DR+W.
Accessing Setup Mode
Telnet Connection
To configure the unit over the network, establish a Telnet connection to port 9999.

below.
