Description
===========

This utility provides users a single application, with a graphical interface and utilizing Microsoft’s .NET Framework, to access various configuration functions for Lantronix networking products. This makes it easy to perform initial setup, IP address assignment, firmware upgrades, and configuration changes.

Requirements
============

The following items are required to run DeviceInstaller:

1. Windows
2. Microsoft .NET Framework v4.0.
3. Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.1, or later.
4. 30MB free hard drive space.

The “Internet Connection Firewall” must be disabled, or else UDP Port 30718 must be available. Otherwise, you will not be able to detect or communicate with any devices on the network. To configure, go to the Control Panel, go to Network Settings, select the corresponding network adapter, choose Properties, and go to the Advanced tab.

Installation
============

The DeviceInstaller is distributed in a single image as a self-extracting executable. It is included on the CD packaged with the device server.

1. The application installation directory defaults to C:\Program Files\DeviceInstaller4.4, unless another folder is selected during the installation process.
2. A shortcut to this application is created on the Start/Programs menu.
3. A log file of the installation can be found at c:\Users\<current user>\Local Settings\Temp\DeviceInstaller_Install.log

NOTE: The Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0 must be installed. This comes installed on Windows 7 and above. If for some reason you received this setup utility without the .NET Framework, you can download it at the following URL:

http://download.microsoft.com/download/9/5/A/95A9616B-7A37-4AF6-BC36-D6EA96C8DAAE/dotNetFx40_Full_x86_x64.exe

All installations use Windows Installer 4.5, and can be downloaded at the following URL:
