As an alternative to Web-Manager, you can configure the MatchPort unit using a
terminal program to access the serial port locally. Using this terminal program to
respond to prompts is referred to as being in Setup Mode. Another way to access
Setup Mode is over the network through a Telnet connection.
The unit’s configuration is stored in nonvolatile memory and is retained without
power. You can change the configuration at any time. The unit performs a reset after
the configuration has been changed and stored.
Note: The menus in this section show a typical device. Not all devices
display information in the same manner.
Note: The MatchPort b/g is based on a standard release of Lantronix's CoBos
operating system. Some CoBos products support both wired and wireless
interfaces. The MatchPort b/g currently supports only wireless. Please ignore
references and settings that deal with a wired Ethernet interface.
