Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
You can use Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) to automatically assign IP addresses, deliver
IP stack configuration parameters such as the subnet mask and default router, and provide other
configuration information. For more details, see Assign an IP address using DHCP.
Auto IP
The Auto-IP protocol automatically assigns an IP address from a reserved pool of standard Auto-IP
addresses to the computer on which it is installed. Digi devices automatically obtain their IP
addresses from a DHCP server. If the DHCP server is unavailable or nonexistent, Auto-IP assigns the
device an IP address. For more details, see Assign an IP address using Auto-IP.
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) manages and monitors network Digi Connect and
ConnectPort TS Family devices. The SNMP architecture enables a network administrator to manage:
n Nodes—servers, workstations, routers, switches, and hubs—on an IP network.
n Network performance, such as finding and solving network problems, and planning for network
growth.
Digi devices support SNMP Versions 1 and 2.
For a list of SNMP-related of supported Request for Comments (RFCs) and Management Information
Bases (MIBs), see Supported RFCs and MIBs.
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)/Transport Layer Security (TLS)
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)/Transport Layer Security (TLS) provides authentication and encryption for
Digi Connect and ConnectPort TS Family products. For more information, see Security features in Digi
devices.
Telnet
Digi Connect and ConnectPort TS Family devices support the following types of telnet connections:
n Telnet client
n Telnet server
n Reverse telnet, often used for console management or device management
n Telnet autoconnect
n RFC 2217, Telnet Com Port Control Option, an extension of the telnet protocol
For more information on these connections, see Network connections and data paths. You can enable
or disable access to telnet network services.
Remote login (rlogin)
You can enable or disable access to rlogin service. When enabled, users can use rlogin to remotely sign
in to systems.
