Introduction
This chapter provides information about the different methods you can use to configure the Device
Server.
DeviceManager
The DeviceManager is a fully functional Windows 98/NT/2000/ME/Server 2003/XP Device Server
configuration/management tool. You must install the DeviceManager from the CD-ROM included
with the Device Server. Through the DeviceManager, you can:
z assign an IP address to new Device Servers.
z perform firmware updates.
z create configuration files, which can be immediately downloaded to the Device Server.
z save configuration files locally in the DeviceManager’s native binary format or to a text file. The
text configuration file can be edited with a text editor.
z open a session to a Device Server and import a (saved) configuration file.
z view statistics for a Device Server.
z download custom files, such as new terminal definitions and a custom language file.
z download a configuration file to multiple Device Servers.
You can use the DeviceManager as a stand-alone application to create configuration files that can be
saved locally or you can use the DeviceManager to open a session to a Device Server to actively
manage and configure it.
See Chapter 5, Using the DeviceManager on page 47 for information on configuring/managing the
Device Server with DeviceManager.
