2.12.2.4 Setting Up an IP Address via the Serial Port

SecureSync's front panel serial port connector is a standard DB9 female connector. Com
munication with the serial port can be performed using a PC with a terminal emulator program
(such as PuTTY or TeraTerm) using a pinned straight-thru standard DB9M to DB9F serial cable.
The serial port can be used to make configuration changes (such as the network settings),
retrieve operational data (e.g., GNSS receiver information) and log files, or to perform oper
ations such as resetting the admin password.
The serial port is account and password protected. You can login via the serial port using the
same user names and passwords as would be used to log into the SecureSync Web UI. Users
with "administrative rights" can perform all available commands. Users with "user" permissions
only can perform "get" commands that retrieve data, but cannot perform any "set" commands
or change/reset any passwords.
To configure an IP address via the serial port:
1.
Connect a serial cable to a PC running PuTTY, Tera Term, or HyperTerminal, and to
your SecureSync. For detailed information on the serial port connection, see "Setting up
a Terminal Emulator" on page 491
