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 UDS2100 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)
.
Note: The examples in this section show a typical device. Your device may have
different configuration options.
