4 devolo MicroLink dLAN software
In this chapter, we will introduce you to the devolo MicroLink dLAN Configu-
ration Wizard, the MicroLink Informer software and the HTML configuration
interface.
4.1 Overview of the devolo software
4.1.1 MicroLink dLAN Configuration Wizard
The MicroLink dLAN Configuration Wizard helps you to build and change your
encrypted dLAN network. With its help, you can add the MicroLink dLAN to
your network. It allows you to configure all dLAN adapters on the network
from a central location, such as from a single workstation. For the encryption
process, you need the security IDs of the dLAN adapters (provided on the
underside of the unit) and a network password of your choice, which you will
assign.
4.1.2 MicroLink Informer
The MicroLink Informer displays information regarding all dLAN devices on
your network, such as their MAC addresses and current transfer speeds.
The MAC address (Media Access Control) is a serial number which is unique
throughout the entire world. It is permanently programmed in the hardware
and cannot be altered. You can find the dLAN MAC address of the MicroLink
dLAN on the bottom of the unit.
4.1.3 HTML configuration interface
With the HTML configuration interface, you can operate your MicroLink dLAN
Audio adapter via the network. Furthermore, you can use the interface to con-
figure settings for the channels and the IP addresses, as well as to update the
firmware.
