XPort™ User Guide 14
Using Web-Manager to Configure the Unit
You must configure the unit so that 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 you can configure the XPort using Web-Manager,
Lantronix’s browser-based configuration tool. (For information on using Setup Mode,
our command line configuration interface, see 4:Using Setup Mode on page 21.)
Note: The examples in this section show a typical device. Your device may
have different configuration options.
To configure the unit:
1. Open DeviceInstaller.
2. Click the Search icon
. A list of Lantronix device servers on the network
displays.
3. Select the unit and click the Web icon
, or select Web Pages from the
Device menu.
The Lantronix Web-Manager window displays in your browser.
Note: You can also open your JAVA-enabled web browser and enter the
IP address of the XPort to open Web-Manager. Web-Manager works
with JAVA v1.3.1x or higher.
