UC-7400-CE User’s Manual Introduction
Networking and Communication Capabilities
For network-centric embedded application usage, the UC-7400-CE not only provides powerful
communication hardware interfaces, including dual Ethernet ports and 3-in-1 serial ports, but also
supports the networking and communications capabilities that are built into the Windows® CE 5.0
OS. The following features are supported:
y Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)—Monitors remote connections to the
network.
y Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) Client—Provides support for synchronizing the
device’s system time with an SNTP server, and supports Daylight Savings Time.
y Serial Communications—In addition to the 16550 UART driver bound to a debug port and the
console port, also included is a special driver for 8 additional Moxa serial ports.
y Network Utilities (IpConfig, Ping, Route)—Utilities for troubleshooting various network
problems.
y TCP/IP—The protocols that are included are IP, Address Resolution (ARP), Internet Control
Messaging (ICMP), Internet Group Membership (IGMP), Transmission Control (TCP), User
Datagram (UDP), name resolution and registration, and DHCP.
Supporting Servers and Daemons
In addition to its development and communication capability, the UC-7400-CE also has the
following embedded services and daemons. These common and easy-to-use application servers
make it easy for users to migrate the UC-7400-CE embedded computer to industrial
communication applications.
y Telnet Server—Sample server that allows remote administration through a standard Telnet
client.
y FTP Server—Sample server used for transferring files to and from remote computer systems
over a network using TCP/IP.
y Web Server (HTTPD)—Includes ASP, ISAPI Secure Socket Layer support, SSL 2, SSL 3,
Transport Layer Security (TLS/SSL 3.1) public key-based protocols, and Web Administration
ISAPI Extensions.
y Dial-up Networking—Includes the RAS client API and the Point to Point Protocol (PPP).
RAS and PPP support Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) and RAS scripting.
Learning Firmware Build Versions
Three methods are available for obtaining the firmware version of the UC-7400-CE computer.
You will need the firmware version to determine the precise features of your UC-7400-CE
computer.
y Examine the welcome message after you log on to the computer.
y Log on to the web-based management system (described in a later chapter) to view the system
information.
y For the UC-7420-CE or UC-7410, you can obtain the firmware version by pressing the F1
function key, and then examine this information on the LCM display.
