DeviceInstaller: Configure the IP address and related settings and view current settings on
the PremierWave XC HSPA+ intelligent gateway 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 connection, or connecting a PC or other host running a terminal emulation program to
the unit’s serial port. (See the PremierWave XC HSPA+ Intelligent Gateway Command
Reference for instructions and available commands.)
XML: The PremierWave XC HSPA+ intelligent gateway 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 XC HSPA+
Intelligent Gateway Command Reference for instructions and commands).
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

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 XC HSPA+
intelligent gateway:
TCP Port 22: SSH Server (Command Mode configuration)
TCP Port 23: Telnet Server (Command Mode configuration)
TCP Port 80: HTTP (Web Manager Configuration)
TCP Port 21: FTP
UDP Port 30718: LDP (Lantronix Discovery Protocol) port
TCP/UDP Port 10001: Tunnel 1 (see note below)
UDP Port 1900 and TCP Port 30179: UPnP
Note: Additional TCP/UDP ports and tunnels will be available, depending on the product
type. The default numbering of each additional TCP/UDP port and corresponding tunnel
will increase sequentially (i.e., TCP/UDP Port 1000X: Tunnel X).

Notes:
For Table 3-3 above, a “long” blink is 0.7 seconds of light followed by 0.3 seconds of no
light. A “short” blink is a light that is on for only 0.2 seconds and followed by 0.2 seconds of
no light.
The diagnostic blink patterns reflect the highest priority fault condition. Also, the
Diagnostic LED will give an initial, identifying blink pattern to indicate the type of diagnostic
information it will display. All power and other non-network related diagnostic patterns,
with the exception of Temperature events and No SIM Card events, begin with one long
blink. All wired LAN related diagnostics patterns begin with two long blinks. All cellularrelated diagnostics patterns begin with four long blinks.

Installing the PremierWave XC HSPA+ Unit Device
Be sure to place or mount the device securely on a flat horizontal or vertical surface. The device
comes with brackets for mounting it, for example, on a wall. If using AC power, do not use outlets
controlled by a wall switch.
Observe the following guidelines when connecting the devices:
The PremierWave unit serial ports support RS-232/422/485.
Use a null modem cable to connect the serial port to another DTE device. Use a straight-
though (modem) cable to connect the serial port to a DCE device.
Connect your RJ-45 Ethernet cable to the RJ-45 port of the unit.
The PremierWave device supports a power range of 9 to 30 VDC.
PremierWave® XC HSPA+ Intelligent Gateway User Guide 26
3: Installation of the PremierWave XC HSPA+ Device
Note: As soon as you plug the device into power, the device powers up automatically,
the self-test begins, and LEDs would indicate the device's status
Perform the following steps to install your device:
1. With the power unplugged, insert your SIM card.
2. Connect an RJ-45 Ethernet cable between the unit and your Ethernet network.
3. Connect the antennas to the SMA connectors on the back. Do note that the safe distance due
to RF exposure from antenna is 2 cm.
Note: Antennas must be installed prior to powering on the unit. Do not remove or
connect the antennas while the unit power is on.
4. Plug the PremierWave XC device into the power outlet by using the power supply that was
included in the packaging.

4: Device Discovery and Quick Setup
Software embedded within the PremierWave XC HSPA+ intelligent gateway enables the device to
be easily discovered via the Ethernet network without any knowledge of the IP address or default
network configuration of the device.
The two methods supported are:
1. Accessing the PremierWave XC HSPA+ Device Using UPnP
2. Accessing the PremierWave XC HSPA+ Device Using DeviceInstaller
Accessing the PremierWave XC HSPA+ Device Using UPnP
This section covers the steps for locating a PremierWave XC HSPA+ unit and viewing its
properties and device details using UPnP (Network Discovery). You may also use the
DeviceInstaller utility to discover PremierWave XC HSPA+ units. See Accessing the PremierWave
XC HSPA+ Device Using DeviceInstaller on page 30.
The PremierWave XC HSPA+ units can be discovered automatically from Microsoft Windows®
platforms using UPnP (Network Discovery). UPnP enables devices to be discovered and a
refreshed list of devices available under "Network Places" within Windows Explorer as devices
come online or go offline.
Using the operations described below, it becomes a "plug and play" mechanism to reach the
device's Web UI (Web Manager) and complete the rest of the configuration.
Note: There is no new software to install as UPnP support is built-into Windows
operating systems, however it must be enabled on the Windows PC. Please see notes on
enabling UPnP (Network Discovery) on Windows XP and Windows 7 operating systems.

Accessing the PremierWave XC HSPA+ Device Using DeviceInstaller
This section covers the steps for locating a PremierWave XC HSPA+ unit and viewing its
properties and device details. The DeviceInstaller application is a free utility program provided by
Lantronix that discovers, configures, upgrades and manages Lantronix device servers.
Notes:
For instructions on using the DeviceInstaller utility to configure the IP address and
related settings or for more advanced features, see the DeviceInstaller Online Help.
Auto IP generates a random IP address in the range of 169.254.0.1 to
169.254.255.254, with a netmask of 255.255.0.0, if no BOOTP or DHCP server is
found. These addresses are not routable.
You may also use UPnP to discover PremierWave XC HSPA+ units. See Accessing
the PremierWave XC HSPA+ Device Using UPnP on page 29.
Make note of the MAC address. It may be needed to perform various functions in
DeviceInstaller.
To use the DeviceInstaller utility, first install the latest version from the downloads page on the
Lantronix web site www.lantronix.com/downloads
1. Run the executable to start the installation process and respond to the installation wizard
prompts. (If prompted to select an installation type, select Typical.)
.
2. Click Start -> All Programs -> Lantronix -> DeviceInstaller 4.4 -> DeviceInstaller.
3. When DeviceInstaller starts, it will perform a network device search. To perform another
search, click Search.
4. Expand the PremierWave folder by clicking the + symbol next to the folder icon. The list of
available Lantronix PremierWave devices appears.
5. Select the PremierWave unit by expanding its entry and clicking on its IP address to view its
configuration.
6. On the right page, click the Device Details tab. The current PremierWave device
configuration appears. his is only a subset of the full configuration; the full configuration may
be accessed via Web Manager, CLI or XML.
