2.2 Connecting to Access Device

In order to manage your Bluegiga Access Device you need to be able to connect to it over the network. This can

be done in two ways: either by having the Access Device directly connected to the PC via a crossover ethernet

cable or by attaching the device to a switch in your local area network using a standard ethernet cable.

In the latter case, before continuing please make sure that your Access Device is powered on and properly

connected to your network. Notice that, by default all Access Devices are configured to acquire their IP

configuration from a DHCP server which must be present in the LAN. On the other hand, when PC and Access

Device are connected directly, both will use a random zeroconf address in the range 169.254.x.x/16 given the

lack of DHCP server in the simple network, and provided that also the PC is configured for dynamic IP

configuration. Anyway, also in this case the two devices will be in the same LAN and will be able to

communicate together.

Bluegiga Access Device can be managed either through a web browser or from the command line using SSH by

advanced users. Both methods require you to know the IP address of your device, and this can be found by

following the methods described below.

2.2.1 Using UPnP
