DeviceInstaller does not find a Lantronix product on the network

I cannot find my Lantronix Device Server with Device Installer. What might cause this?


To be able to find Lantronix device servers the PC running Device Installer (DI) should have an IP-address in the same range as the Device Severs that you try to discover.

By default Device Servers will assign themselves an IP-address in the range 169.254.x.x if they do not get an IP-address from a DHCP-server (router).

To discover Device Servers who auto-assigned a 169.254 IP-address you can set the IP-address of your PC to an address on the same subnet, e.g. 169.254.1.100.

See also the following FAQ for alternative ways to assign IP-addresses to the UDS1100:

The current version of Device Installer does not support Linux based Device Servers like Xport-Pro-Linux, Matchport-AR-Linux, EDS1100-LNX and EDS2100-LNX.

To assign these devices an IP-address please see chapter 3 "Target Setup" of the Linux SDK Quick Start Guide
