Configuration Methods
After installation, the XPort Pro requires configuration. For the unit to operate
correctly on a network, it must have a unique IP address on the network. There are
four basic methods for logging into the XPort Pro and assigning IP addresses and
other configurable settings:
DeviceInstaller: Configure the IP address and related settings and view current
settings on the XPort Pro using a Graphical User Interface (GUI) on a PC attached to
a network. (See page 19.)
Web Manager: Through a web browser, configure the XPort Pro settings using the
Lantronix Web Manager. (See page 22.)
Command Mode: There are two methods for accessing Command Mode(CLI):
making a Telnet connection or connecting a terminal (or a PC running a terminal
emulation program) to the unit’s serial port. (See the XPort Pro Command Reference
Guide for instructions and available commands.)
XML: The XPort Pro supports XML-based configuration and setup records that make
device configuration transparent to users and administrators. XML is easily editable
with a standard text or XML editor. (See the XPort Pro Command Reference Guide
for instructions and commands.)
Addresses and Port Numbers
Hardware Address
The hardware address is also referred to as the Ethernet address or 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.

address references the specific unit.
