Summary Of The Configuration Process - Digi PortServer CM User Manual

Summary of the Configuration Process

The PortServer CM operating system is embedded Linux. Even if you are a UNIX user and find the tools
and files familiar, do not configure this product as you would configure a regular Linux server. You do not
need to be a UNIX expert to configure the PortServer CM. Additional information about the files and tools
needed for configuration is provided later in this manual.
Initial configuration steps are:
1. Connect the PortServer CM to the network.
2. Configure the IP settings by using the Discover Utility or the netconfig utility.
3. Edit the pslave.conf file from the command line interface or the Web Management Interface. This is the
main configuration file that concentrates most product parameters and defines the functionality of the
PortServer CM. The modifications made to this file will depend on the profile.
4. Activate the changes.
5. Test the configuration to make sure the ports have been set up properly.
6. Save the changes and restarting the server application.
