Configure the Stratix 5900 Services Router

Getting Started with Stratix
5900 Device Manager
Software

Stratix Device Manager software lets you quickly configure router connections.
The software is a lite version of Stratix Configurator software program. The
factory installs the software into the router’s nonvolatile memory. You access the
software on the router by using a browser window and an IP address.

After you use Stratix Device Manager software to give the router basic
configurations such as a router name, username, and passwords, you can use
Stratix Configurator software for more complex configurations. Other
configurations include WAN and LAN interfaces, static routes, DNS, DCHP,
hostname, CNS server, configure IOS CLI, and perform basic troubleshooting
by using ping and traceroute.

With Stratix 5900 Device Manager software, you can set these configuration
parameters for the router.

Local Area Network (LAN) configuration
DHCP Server Configuration
Wide Area Network (WAN)
Firewall
Security Settings
Router Provisioning

Both programs are Rockwell Automation’s versions of the Cisco software
programs, Configuration Express and Configuration Professional.
