Configuration capabilities
Configuration options provide settings for the following features:
n Network Configuration: Specifies IP address settings, network service settings, and advanced
network settings.
n Serial Ports Configuration: Specifies serial port characteristics for the device.
n GPIO Pin Configuration (for Connect ME and Connect EM devices): Specifies how to use
GPIO pins for the device.
n Alarms: Defines conditions that trigger alarms and notifications for alarms.
n System Configuration: Provides system-identifying information, such as a device description,
device location, and contact information.
n Security/Users: Configures security features, such as enabling password authentication for
device users.
Digi Device Discovery utility
The Digi Device Discovery utility:
n Locates Digi devices on a network
n Allows you to open the web interface for discovered devices
n Allows you to configure network settings and reboot the device
Download the Digi Device Discovery utility.
In addition to quickly locating devices, the utility also lists device information, such as the device
address, firmware version, and whether it has been configured. It runs on any operating system that
can send multicast IP packets to a network. It sends out a User Datagram Protocol (UDP) multicast
packet to all Digi devices on the network. Digi devices that support ADDP reply to the UDP multicast
with their configuration information. Even Digi devices that do not yet have an assigned IP address or
are misconfigured for the subnet can reply to the UDP multicast packet and appear in the device
discovery results.
Note Personal firewalls, Virtual Private Network (VPN) software, and certain network equipment can
block device discovery. Firewalls block UDP ports 2362 and 2363 that ADDP uses to discover devices.
You can enable or disable access to the ADDP service, but you cannot change the network port
number for ADDP.
See Use Digi Device Discovery utility to sign in to the web interface for instructions on using the utility
to sign in to the Digi Connect and ConnectPort TS Family web interface.
Remote Manager interface
Digi Remote Manager is a software-as-a-service platform that empower IT, network operations and
customer support organizations to manage the vast array of equipment in their device networks. As a
network grows, the complexity of effectively managing the network assets grows exponentially.
Remote Manager provides functionality that helps to manage the universal problems of a dynamic
device network:
n Centralized control over large numbers of devices
n Reducing service complexity
