UDS-10 User Guide 2-1
2. Getting Started
This section describes all the procedures for configuring your unit. For a short version, see
the Quick Start Guide. Go to the Lantronix web site for the latest firmware and release notes.
UDS-10 comes with Standard Tunnel Protocol and the UDS-10-IAP comes with the IAP
Standard Tunnel Protocol. Both versions are similar but cannot be interchanged. Standard
Tunneling is a serial communications protocol used by most Lantronix Device Servers. It can
be configured to Ethernet-enable most serial devices such as barcode scanners, weigh scales,
operator panels, data access devices, alpha numeric displays, and thousands of intelligent
serial devices. For UDS-10-IAP users, see Industrial Automation Protocols on page 1-5
Loading industrial protocols to a UDS-10-IAP, such as IAP Modbus Bridge, may remove the
web pages and change the configure dialogs. See the user manuals on individual protocols for
protocol specific settings and configuration dialogs. Protocol manuals are found on the
software CD. This section describes the setup and configuration dialogs for the Standard
Tunnel Protocol.
Note: The following information is based on the condition that a UDS-10 is loaded with
Standard Tunnel Protocol. The UDS-10-IAP with IAP Standard Tunnel Protocol may have
different options available.
2.1 Addresses and Port Number
2.1.1 Ethernet (MAC) Address
The Ethernet address is also referred to as the hardware address or the MAC address. The
first three bytes of the Ethernet Address are fixed and read 00-20-4A, identifying the unit as a
Lantronix product. The fourth, fifth, and sixth bytes are unique numbers assigned to each
unit.
00-20-4A-21-18-17 or 00:20:4A:21:18:17
2.1.2 Internet Protocol (IP) Address
Every device connected to an IP network must have a unique IP address. This address is used
to reference the specific unit.
