Lantronix EDS-MD Series

EDS-MD® Wired IoT Device Gateway Command Reference 7
1: About This Guide
This guide describes how to configure the Lantronix® EDS-MD® wired IoT device gateway using
the Command Line Interface (CLI) and/or Extensible Markup Language (XML). CLI provides an
interactive mode for accessing the device configuration and management interface. It is most
suited for system and network administrators comfortable with using similar interfaces on
Enterprise IT and Networking products. It is also helpful as a quick tool for access via the
product's serial ports or console/management ports.
XML provides an extensible mode for software developers interfacing with the device and system
integrators performing batch provisioning/updates.
Note: EDS-MD wired IoT device gateways (which include models EDS-MD 4, EDS-MD
8 and EDS-MD 16) are commonly referred to as either EDS-MD 4/8/16 or as EDS-MD
when mentioned within a description equally applicable to any of the three models.
