Network settings

  1. Click Network to view the IP settings or make any changes to the IP address.

  2. Click DNS Settings.
    • In the Name Servers fields, enter Primary, Secondary, and Teritiary DNS servers. The DNS server maps names (example: MyDeviceName.mycompany.com) to IP addresses (example:192.105.1.2).
    • In the Domain field, enter the domain name that this device will live in that is tied to the DNS server address assigned in step 2. This name can be used by other network devices to talk to it, instead of using the its IP address. Get this name from the network administrator, because it must be entered in the DNS server to work properly.
    • In the Host Name field, enter a host name for a group of network devices.

  3. Click Advanced Network Settings.
  4. Enter the Base Socket. The base socket determines the network port (socket) on this Digi terminal server that another network device (such as another Digi terminal server or a PC) uses to communicate using the Digi device’s serial port services. These services include Telnet, raw TCP/UDP, and SSL.

    Most applications can leave this value unchanged. To calculate these settings:

    • Telnet port = Base Socket + Serial Port Number
    • Raw port = Base Socket + 100 + Serial Port Number
    • SSL port = Base Socket + 600 + Serial Port Number
  5. For example:
Service Base socket Network port
telnet 2000 2001
raw (TCP or UDP) 2000 2101
SSL 2000 2601

 

  1. Click Apply.
  2. Click Reboot for changes to take effect.
