If DHCP is available on your local network, the IP address will automatically be assigned. Locate your device by matching the MAC address found on the back of Digi One device server to the MAC address listed on screen. Go to “Configure the Digi One SP/IA Device Server”.

To configure an IP address if DHCP is not available on your local network or to change an IP address, see Chapter 2 “Configuring the IP Address.”

If you cannot use the enclosed software and need to use ARP-Ping, see Chapter 2 “Configuring the IP Address.”

Configure the Digi One SP/IA Device Server

1.Double-click the IP address next to the MAC address of your Digi device server.

Note: The device server must have an initial IP set.

2.Enter the username root

3.Enter the default password dbps.

Note: To change the password click Admin > Change Password after you log on your device server.

4.Click Configure > Port

5.Select your Device type (printer, modem, modem in/out), Baud rate, Terminal type (vt-100, wy60, and wy60-e are the most common terminal types), Data bits, Flow control, Parity, and Stop bits from the drop down menus.

6.Click Submit to save the configuration.
