Web interface
A web interface is provided as an easy way to configure and monitor Digi devices. Configurable
features are grouped into several categories. These categories vary by product; examples include
Network, Serial Port, Alarms, and System. Most of the configurable features are arranged by most
basic settings on a page, with associated and advanced settings accessible from that page. Serial-port
configurations are classified into port profiles, or configuration scenarios that best represents the
environment in which the Digi device will be used. Selecting a particular port profile configures the
serial port parameters that are needed. For some features, it may be desirable to establish a basic
configuration using the Digi Device Setup Wizard, and then fine-tune the configuration using the
web interface. To access the web interface, enter the Digi device’s IP address or host name in a
browser’s URL window. The main menu of the web interface is displayed. For more information,
see "Configuration through the web interface" on page 48. The web interface has a tutorial,
accessed from the Home page, and online help, accessed from the Help link on each page. Not all
settings provided by the command-line interface are displayed in the web interface. However, the
configuration settings in the web interface should be sufficient for most users. If necessary, settings
can be modified later from the command line.
