PROGRAMMER'S GUIDE
The LAN interface allows to configure the device and manage the match-list. The
easiest way is to do this using the NEDAP WIM_List software. Customized software
can be developed using the command messages described in this chapter.
By default DHCP is enabled on the WIM. This means that the WIM will ask upon
powerup the DHCP server on the network for an ip-address. You can use the
WIM_List software or the Lantronix Device Installer software to assign a fixed ip-
address.
The TCP port number for communication with the WIM is 10001.
6.1
MESSAGE FORMAT
Once the connection is established with the WIM on TCP port number 10001,
command messages can be transmitted to the WIM and response message may be
received.
Messages are sent in ASCII format. Every message is terminated with a carriage-
return (0x0D) and linefeed (0x0A) character sequence.
message<cr><lf>
Usually the WIM will reply messages with a echo-message to indicate that the
message was successful. If a command message is not supported or not recognized,
the WIM will return an error message (
?<cr><lf>
).
