The Home page
The left side of the Home page has a menu of choices that display pages for configuration,
management, and administration tasks, and to log out of the web interface. This chapter focuses on
the choices under Configuration and Applications. For details on monitoring Digi devices and
the choices under Management, see Chapter 3, "Monitor and manage Digi devices". For details on
the tasks under Administration, see Chapter 4, "Digi device administration".
Clicking Logout logs out of a configuration and management session with a Digi device. It does
not close the browser window, but displays a logout window. To finish logging out of the web
interface and prevent access by other users, close the browser window. Or, log back on to the
device by clicking the link on the screen. After 5 minutes of inactivity, the idle timeout also
automatically performs a user logout.
The Getting Started section has a link to a tutorial on configuring and managing Digi device.
The System Summary section notes all available device-description information.
Configuration pages
The choices under Configuration in the menu display pages for configuring settings for various
features, such as network settings, mobile settings, and serial port settings.

Services Settings, Advanced Settings, and other network settings appropriate to the Digi device.

Apply and save changes
The web interface runs locally on the device, which means that the interface always maintains and
displays the latest settings in the Digi device.
On each screen, the Apply button is used to save any changes to the configuration settings to the
Digi device.
Cancel changes
To cancel changes to configuration settings, click the Refresh or Reload button on the web
browser. This causes the browser to reload the page. Any changes made since the last time the
Apply button was clicked are reset to their original values.
