Lantronix Network Hardware 2100 User Manual

Evolution OS™ is the Lantronix cutting-edge operating system that supports three convenient 
configuration methods: Web Manager, Command Line Interface (CLI), and Extensible Markup 
Language (XML). For more information about the Web Manager, see the IntelliBox-I/O 2100 User 
Guide at the Lantronix website.

XML is a fundamental building block for the future growth of Machine-to-Machine (M2M) networks. 
Evolution supports XML configuration records that make configuring the device server easy for 
users and administrators. XML configuration records are easy to edit with a a standard text editor 
or an XML editor. 

For a brief overview of XML, see 

. It provides rules on basic 

XML syntax, a guide to the specific XML tags used, and a guide to using XML configuration 
records.

Making the edge-to-enterprise vision a reality, Evolution OS™ uses industry-standard tools for 
configuration, communication, and control. For example, the Evolution OS™ uses a command line 
interface (CLI) whose syntax is very similar to that used by data center equipment such as routers 
and hubs.

For details of the CLI, see 

. It provides an index of the CLI 

Command Hierarchy with links to the corresponding command details. The CLI provides 
commands for configuring, monitoring, and controlling the device server.
