There are four basic methods for logging into the PremierWave EN embedded system on module and assigning IP addresses and other configurable settings:
Web Manager: View and configure all settings easily through a web browser using the
Lantronix Web Manager. (See Configuration Using Web Manager on page 24.)
DeviceInstaller: Configure the IP address and related settings and view current settings on
the PremierWave EN embedded system on module using a Graphical User Interface (GUI) on a PC attached to a network. You will need the latest version of the Lantronix® DeviceInstaller™ utility. (See Accessing the PremierWave XC HSPA+ Device Using
DeviceInstaller on page 30.)
Command Mode: There are a few methods for accessing Command Mode (CLI): making a
Telnet or SSH connection, or connecting a PC or other host running a terminal emulation program to the unit’s serial port. (See the PremierWave EN Embedded System on Module Command Reference for instructions and available commands.)
XML: The PremierWave EN embedded system on module 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 PremierWave EN
Embedded System on Module Command Reference for instructions and commands).
2: Introduction

Addresses and Port Numbers

Hardware Address

The hardware address is also referred to as the Ethernet address, physical address, or MAC address. The first three bytes of the Ethernet address are fixed and identify the unit as a Lantronix product. The fourth, fifth, and sixth bytes are unique numbers assigned to each unit. Sample hardware address:
00-80-A3-14-1B-18
00:80:A3:14:1B:18

IP Address

Every device connected to an IP network must have a unique IPv4 address. This address references the specific unit.

Port Numbers

Every TCP connection and every UDP datagram is defined by a destination and source IP address, and a destination and source port number. For example, a Telnet server commonly uses TCP port number 23.
The following is a list of the default server port numbers running on the PremierWave EN embedded system on module:
TCP Port 22: SSH Server (Command Mode configuration)
TCP Port 23: Telnet Server (Command Mode configuration)
PremierWave® EN Embedded System on Module User Guide 19
TCP Port 80: HTTP (Web Manager Configuration)
Note: The hardware address on the label is
also the product serial number. The hardware address on the label is the address for the Ethernet (eth0) interface. The WLAN (wlan0) interface uses the Ethernet address "+1". For example, if the product label hardware address is 00-80-A3-14-1B-18, then the Ethernet address is 00-80-A3-14-1B-18 and the WLAN address is 00-80-A3-14-1B-19.
