OS™ include:
Built-in Web server for configuration and troubleshooting from Web-based
browsers
CLI configurability
SNMP management
XML data transport and configurability
Really Simple Syndication (RSS) information feeds
Enterprise-grade security with SSL and SSH
Comprehensive troubleshooting tools
XPort Pro™ User Guide 14
Additional Features
Modem Emulation
In modem emulation mode, the XPort Pro can replace dial-up modems. The unit
accepts modem AT commands on the serial port, and then establishes a network
connection to the end device, leveraging network connections and bandwidth to
eliminate dedicated modems and phone lines.
Web-Based Configuration and Troubleshooting
Built upon Internet-based standards, the XPort Pro enables you to configure,
manage, and troubleshoot through a browser-based interface accessible anytime
from anywhere. All configuration and troubleshooting options are launched from a
web interface. You can access all functions via a Web browser, for remote access.
As a result, you decrease downtime (using the troubleshooting tools) and implement
configuration changes (using the configuration tools).
Command-Line Interface (CLI)
2 Introduction
Making the edge-to-enterprise vision a reality, the XPort Pro with the Evolution OS™
uses industry-standard tools for configuration, communication, and control. For
example, the Evolution OS™ uses a Command Line Interface (CLI) whose syntax is
very similar to that used by data center equipment such as routers and hubs.
VIP Access
Virtual IP Access is the Lantronix technology that solves the access-through-firewall
problem. With VIP Access, the XPort Pro can act as a ManageLinx DSC and provide
direct access to your equipment behind a firewall.
SNMP Management
The XPort Pro supports full SNMP management, making it ideal for applications
where device management and monitoring are critical. These features allow networks
with SNMP capabilities to correctly diagnose and monitor XPort Pro.
XML-Based Architecture and Device Control
XML is a fundamental building block for the future growth of M2M networks. The
XPort Pro supports XML-based configuration setup records that make device
configuration transparent to users and administrators. The XML is easily editable with
a standard text or XML editor.
Really Simple Syndication (RSS)
The XPort Pro supports Really Simple Syndication (RSS), a rapidly emerging
technology for streaming and managing on-line content. RSS feeds all the
configuration changes that occur on the device. An RSS aggregator then reads
(polls) the feed. More powerful than simple email alerts, RSS uses XML as an
underlying Web page transport and adds intelligence to the networked device, while
not taxing already overloaded email systems.
XPort Pro™ User Guide 15
2 Introduction
Enterprise-Grade Security
Evolution OS™ provides the XPort Pro the highest level of networking security
possible. This ‘data center grade’ protection ensures that each device on the M2M
network carries the same level of security as traditional IT networking equipment in
the corporate data center.
By protecting the privacy of serial data transmitted across public networks, users can
maintain their existing investment in serial technology, while taking advantage of the
highest data-protection levels possible.
SSH and SSL can:
Verify the data received came from the proper source
Validate that the data transferred from the source over the network has not
changed when it arrives at its destination (shared secret and hashing)
Encrypt data to protect it from prying eyes and nefarious individuals
Provide the ability to run popular M2M protocols over a secure SSH or SSL
connection
In addition to keeping data safe and accessible, the XPort Pro has robust defenses to
hostile Internet attacks such as denial of service (DoS), which can be used to take
down the network. Moreover, the XPort Pro cannot be used to bring down other
devices on the network.
You can use the XPort Pro with the Lantronix Secure Com Port Redirector (SCPR) to
encrypt COM port-based communications between PCs and virtually any electronic
device. SCPR is a Windows application that creates a secure communications path
over a network between the computer and serial-based devices that are traditionally
controlled via a COM port. With SCPR installed at each computer, computers that
were formerly “hard-wired” by serial cabling for security purposes or to accommodate
applications that only understood serial data can instead communicate over an
Ethernet network or the Internet.
Terminal Server/Device Management
Remote offices can have routers, PBXs, servers and other networking equipment that
require remote management from the corporate facility. The XPort Pro easily
attaches to the serial ports on a server, Private Branch Exchange (PBX), or other
networking equipment to deliver central, remote monitoring and management
capability.
Troubleshooting Capabilities
The XPort Pro offers a comprehensive diagnostic toolset that lets you troubleshoot
problems quickly and easily. Available from the Web Manager, CLI, and XML
interfaces, the diagnostic tools let you:
View critical hardware, memory, MIB-II, buffer pool, and IP socket information.
Perform ping and traceroute operations.
Conduct forward or backup DNS lookup operations.

View all processes currently running on the XPort Pro, including CPU utilization
and total stack space available.
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.)
2 Introduction
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.
Figure 2-1. Sample Hardware Address
00-20-4A-14-01-18
or
00:20:4A:14:01:18
IP Address
Every device connected to an IP network must have a unique IP address. This
address references the specific unit.
XPort Pro™ User Guide 17
2 Introduction
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 port number 23.

protocol. The primary and secondary DNS addresses come from the active interface.
The static addresses from the Network Interface Configuration page may be
overridden by DHCP or BOOTP.
The DNS page also shows any contents in the DNS cache. When a DNS name is
resolved using a forward lookup, the results are stored in the DNS cache temporarily.
The XPort Pro consults this cache when performing forward lookups. Each item in
the cache eventually times out and is removed automatically after a certain period, or
you can delete it manually.

The XPort Pro also supports authentication scheme of “None” when no
authentication is required during link negotiation.
Note: The following section describes the steps to configure PPP 1 (PPP on serial
line 1); these steps also apply to PPP on other lines.
Note: Since the XPort Pro does not support NAPT (Network Address and Port

SSH Server Authorized Users
On this page you can change SSH server settings for Authorized Users.
SSH Server Authorized Users are accounts on the XPort that can be used to log into
the XPort Pro using SSH. For instance, these accounts can be used to SSH into the
CLI or open an SSH connection to a device port. Every account must have a
password.
The user's public keys are optional and only necessary if public key authentication is
required. Using public key authentication allows a connection to be made without the
password being asked.
Under Current Configuration, User has a Delete User link, and Public RSA Key
and Public DSA Key have View Key and Delete Key links. If you click a Delete link,
a message asks whether you are sure you want to delete this information. Click OK
to proceed or Cancel to cancel the operation.
To configure the SSH server for authorized users:
1. Click SSH on the menu bar and then Server Authorized Users at the top of the
page. The SSH Server: Authorized Users page appears.

SSH Client User Configuration
On this page you can change SSH client settings for users.
SSH client known users are used by all applications that play the role of an SSH
client, specifically tunneling in Connect Mode. At the very least, a password or key
pair must be configured for a user. The keys for public key authentication can be
created elsewhere and uploaded to the device or automatically generated on the
device. If uploading existing keys, be sure the private key will not be compromised in
transit. This implies the data is uploaded over some kind of secure private network.
Note: If you are providing a key by uploading a file, make sure that the key is not
password protected.

SSL Settings
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is a protocol for managing the security of data
transmission over the Internet. It provides encryption, authentication, and message
integrity services. SSL is widely used for secure communication to a web server.
Certificate/Private key combinations can be obtained from an external Certificate
Authority (CA) and downloaded into the unit. Self-signed certificates with associated
private key can be generated by the device server itself.
For more information regarding Certificates and how to obtain them see Obtaining a
Certificate and Private Key on page 138.

CAUTION: Setting this flag may pose a security risk.
Select Disabled to disable the sending of the RST flag.
Ack Limit:
XPort Pro™ User Guide 94
11 Maintenance and Diagnostics Settings
The Ack Limit specifies how many packets must be received before an ACK is
forced. If there is a large amount of data to acknowledge, an ACK will be forced
before this.
If the sender TCP implementation waits for an ACK before sending more data even
though the window is open, setting Ack Limit to "1" packet will improve performance
by forcing immediate acknowledgements.
Send Data:
The Send Data selection governs when data may be sent into the network. The
Standard implementation waits for an ACK before sending a packet less than the
maximum length. Select Expedited to send data whenever the window allows it.
