VIA USER INTERFACES:
CMR-5910 (MG-SIP)
4.1 Introduction
Management of the CMR-5910 Serial IP Gateway (MG-SIP) is simple and intuitive. This
chapter outlines the variety of ways to specifically configure and manage the MG-SIP:
•
Web Interface via a LAN-based desktop Web browser
•
Terminal Interface via direct connection to a PC’s asynchronous serial port
•
Telnet Interface via a LAN
•
TFTP for remote terminal upgrades
•
SNMP Private MIB and MIB II (Future)
4.2 Web Interface
The Web Interface, operating under standard HyperText Transport Protocol (HTTP), is
used to communicate with and command the MG-SIP via a HyperText Markup
Language-based Graphical User Interface (GUI). To utilize the Web Interface, a LAN
connection must exist between the PC with a Web browser and the MG-SIP.
Once a valid IP Address, Subnet Mask and Default Gateway have been entered into the
MG-SIP, activate a Web browser on the desktop, then enter the MG-SIP’s IP address into the
URL field as shown below. If the port number has been modified from the Standard 80 via
the Terminal Interface, then the port number must be appended with a colon to the IP address.
