The ireLine Ethernet radio modem combines two products in one unit. It is a
ireLine radio modem, with all of the features and functions of Raveon’s ireLine
series of radio modems, alon with a Digi Connect Ethernet interface.
The ireLine Ethernet radio modem has two user I/O ports. Either one or both
may be used to send and receive data over the radio channel. Data from both
ports is sent over the air, and all data received over the air will come out both
ports.
The serial port is a standard RS-232 serial port, which operates the same on all
ireLine radio modems. It can be used to send/receive data or to mana e the
confi uration.
The 10./100 Ethernet interface supports many different network protocols. Your
application will dictate which is the best mode to use. If you would like
assistance in choosin the best protocol, contact Raveon Application Support to
discuss which is best for you. Available Protocols are:
• Telnet
• Realport COM port emulation.
• Udpserial
• TCP Sockets

All Ethernet functions are implemented usin the embedded Digi Connect ME
1
module within the ireLine Ethernet radio modem. This module is made by Digi
International, Inc. of Minnetonka, Minnesota a division of NetSilicon. The Digi
Connect ME interface is built on leadin 32-bit ARM technolo y usin the
network-attached NetSilicon NS7520 microprocessor, the Di i Connect ME
combines true plu -and-play functionality.
The most strai htforward method to implement the ireLine Ethernet is the “COM
Port Redirection” technique, usin Realport software. The ireLine Ethernet uses
the patented RealPort COM/TTY port redirection for Microsoft Windows, UNIX,
and Linux environments. RealPort software provides a virtual connection to serial
devices, no matter where they reside on the network. The software is installed
directly on the host and allows applications to talk to devices across a network as
thou h the devices were directly attached to the host on a COM port.
In the system above, any application runnin on the system computer will talk
over the RF link as if it were a COM serial port on the PC. In most of these types
of applications, the user’s application software needs no customization. It simply
communicates to a COM port, and thinks the FireLine Ethernet is plu ed into a
serial port on the system PC.
FireLine Ethernet modems may be used in radio networks with other FireLine
Ethernet modems, or with standard RS232/RS485 FireLine modems, effectively
connectin the System PC/Device to a remote serial port, via the wireless link as
shown below.

2.2. Security Features
Network recurity-related features in Di i Connect devices include:
•
Secure access and authentication:
•
One password, one permission level. (Default user:
root
Default password: dbps )
•
Can issue passwords to device users.
•
Can selectively enable and disable IP services: network services such as ADDP,
RealPort, Encrypted RealPort, HTTP/HTTPS, LPD, Remote Lo in, Remote Shell,
SNMP, and Telnet, can be enabled and disabled.
Secure sites for confi uration: HTML pa es for confi uration have appropriate
security.
• Encryption: Di i Connect devices include stron Secure Sockets Layer
(SSL) V3.0/
• Transport Layer Security (TLS) V1.0-based encryption: DES (56-bit),
3DES
• (168-bit), AES (128-/156-bit): Encrypted RealPort offers encryption for the
Ethernet connection between the
• COM/TTY port and the Di i Connect device: Wireless Di i Connect
devices provide Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) and
•
SNMP security: Authorization: Chan in public and private community
names is recommended to prevent unauthorized access to the device.
You can disable SNMP set commands to make use of SNMP read-only.
2.3. The Default Web Interface
A default web interface is provided as an easy way to confi ure and monitor Di i
Connect devices like the ireLine Ethernet modem. Confi urable features are
rouped into several cate ories: Network, Serial Port, Alarms, Security, and
System. Most of the confi urable features are arran ed by most basic settin s on
a pa e, with associated and advanced settin s accessible from that pa e. As in
the Di i Device Setup Wizard, serial port confi urations are classified into port
profiles, or confi uration scenarios that allow you to select the scenario that best
represents the environment and set up the appropriate parameters that are
needed.
When confi urin some features, you may want to establish a basic confi uration
usin the Di i Device Setup Wizard, and then fine-tune the confi uration usin
the default web interface.
2.4. Using the Digi Discovery Program
The Digi Discovery Program is the preferred method of mana in your ireLine
Ethernet products. It is an easy-to-use pro ram that displays all Di i powered
devices, and with a few clicks, allows you to confi ure them. When you run the
Di i Discovery pro ram called “dgdiscvr.exe”, the pro ram will search for all Di i
devices, and display a list of them on your screen.

Note: When power is first applied to the Ethernet ireLine, it may take the Di i
Connect module up to 30 seconds to boot-up, and be in normal communications
on the network.
pen the Web Interface
To open the default web interface, you can either:
•
Enter the Digi Connect device’s URL in a Web browser and log on to the device, if required.
•
Use the Digi Device Discovery utility to locate the device and open the Web interface.
By Entering the Device’s URL in a Web Browser
In the URL address bar of a Web browser, enter the IP address of the device. If
security has been enabled for the device, a lo in dialo will be displayed. Enter
the user name and password for the device. If you do not know the user name
and password for the device, contact the system administrator who initially set up
the device.
After you lo on, the Home pa e of the default web interface is displayed and
you are ready to confi ure the Ethernet interface on the FireLine
2.5. User Interfaces
ireLine Ethernet data radios with the Di i Connect device support a variety of
user interfaces for confi urin and monitorin tasks, includin :
•
The Di i Device Setup Wizard
•
A default web-based interface (Preferred)
•
An optional Java-applet interface
•
Telnet Command-Line Interface
•
Confi uration via Remote Command Interface (RCI) over the serial port
•
Simple Network Mana ement Protocol (SNMP)
3. Configuring the Ethernet Interface
3.1. Assigning an IP Address to the FireLine
There are several ways to assi n an IP address to a ireLine Ethernet:
• Usin the Di i Device Setup Wizard.
• Usin Dynamic Host Confi uration Protocol (DHCP) from the default web
interface (only for chan in the IP address once it has been assi ned).
• Usin the Command-Line Interface.
• Usin Automatic Private IP Addressin (APIPA), also known as Auto-IP.
This section describes how to confi ure the device with the Di i Setup Wizard.
To use the other methods, refer to the “Digi Connect amily User Guide”
supplied on the CD with your FireLine Ethernet modem.

Raveon Technologies Corp.
Usin the Di i Device Setup Wizard is the preferred method of assi nin an IP
address and initially confi urin your Di i Connect device. The Di i Device Setup
Wizard is supplied on the CD that accompanies your Di i Connect device.
The Di i Device Setup Wizard “discovers” the device, and then provides a
method for assi nin an IP address as well as confi urin your device for your
needs. It can be used in conjunction with the web interface to ‘tweak’ the specific
environment. Setup is specially desi ned for the Windows environments, and is
quick, automated, and complete.
Prerequisites
This procedure assumes the followin :
•
The ireLine Ethernet device is connected to the network and powered up.
•
The CD will be used on a system running Microsoft Windows operating system
•
or a Unix operating system.
•
That you have located the device server’s MAC address, located on the label on
•
the bottom of the product, and recorded it for later use in assigning an IP
•
address.
Procedure
1. Insert the Di i CD in the CD drive.
2. If the CD does not start automatically, double-click My Computer > CD
ROM Drive > setup.exe
3. The Di i Device Setup Wizard will automatically pop up. Select your
platform and click Next.
4. The Di i application finds and lists all of the Di i devices on your network.
5. Locate your device server by its MAC address.
6. Select the device server and then click Next.
7.
Follow the instructions in the wizard to confi ure your Di i Connect device.
The default user is: root The default password is: dbps Use the online
help supplied with the wizard if you need more information about values
the wizard prompts you to supply and select.
The main confi ure menu for settin the IP address in the FireLine Ethernet will
look like the screen snapshot below. In this example, the FireLine Ethernet is
confi ured with a static IP address.

3.2. Enable or Disable Network Services
The Network Services pa e shows a set of common network services that are
available for devices, and the port on which the service is runnin .
You can enable or disable several common network services and confi ure the
TCP port they listen on. Disablin services may be done for security purposes.
That is, you can disable certain services so that a device is runnin only those
services specifically needed by the device. As needed, you can also disable any
non-secure services, such as Telnet.
Network Services that Can Be Enabled or Disabled
Followin are the network services which can be enabled or disabled. By default,
all services are ENABLED.
•
ADDP: This service controls use of Advanced Digi Device Discovery Protocol. If it is
disabled, you can no longer use the Digi Device Setup Wizard, or Digi Device
Discovery utility to locate the device.
•
HTTP & HTTPS: These services control the use of the Web interface. If you disable them,
device users cannot use the default web interface or Java applet to configure,
monitor, and administer the device.
•
RealPort or Encrypted RealPort: These services control use of COM port redirection. If
disabled, COM port redirection cannot be used for the device.
•
Rlogin: Enables or disables the remote login (rlogin) service. If disabled, users cannot
perform a remote login to the device.
•
Rsh: Enables or disables the remote shell (rsh) service.

•
SNMP: Enables or disables the use of SNMP. If disabled, SNMP services such as traps
and device information are not used.
•
Telnet: Enables or disables the Telnet service. If disabled, users cannot Telnet to the to the
device.
4. Telnet peration
FireLine Di i Connected devices support the followin types of Telnet
connections:
•
Telnet Client
•
Telnet Server
•
Reverse Telnet, often used for console management or device management
•
Telnet Autoconnect
•
R C 2217 (Telnet Com Port Control Option)
For more information on these connections, see the section "Supported
Connections and Data Paths" in the Digi Connect amily User’s Guide.
Access to Telnet network services can be enabled or disabled.
Note: When the ireLine Ethernet with Di i Connect is first powered on, it may
take up to 30 seconds to boot-up, and be in normal communications on the
network interface.
4.1. About TCP and UDP Port Numbers
Di i Connect devices use the followin default TCP and UDP port numberin
conventions described in the followin table: You must ensure that the
application or device that initiates communication with the Connect device uses
these ports. If they cannot be confi ured to use these ports, you chan e the
individual network port on the Di i Connect device, which allows you different
port numbers to desi nate a Telnet or raw connection to the serial port.
For this connection type... Use these ports:
•
Standard Unencrypted Telnet, port 23.
•
Telnet to the seria,l port 2001 (TCP only)
•
Raw connection to the serial, port 2101(TCP and UDP)
4.2. Configuring the FireLine Ethernet for Telenet peration
This procedure assumes the IP address of the FireLine Ethernet radio modem
has already been set, as per the previous section.
