Description of the Server Properties
Figure 27. ESP Manager Server Properties Window
Server Name
This field displays the name that has been assigned to the Serial Server. A
new Server Name of up to 16 characters can be entered. If more than one
Serial Server is connected on the LAN it is recommended that a new name
be assigned to each. When the ESP Manager finds a Serial Server on the
LAN it displays the server name and IP Address allowing the user to
distinguish between Serial Servers.
Serial Number
Each Serial Server has a unique serial number. This is fixed and cannot be
changed.
Password
Entering a password activates a security feature on the Serial Server. Once a
password is entered it will be required to access the menu and make changes.
