EDS-MD® Wired IoT Device Gateway Command Reference 9
2: Overview
The EDS-MD 4, EDS-MD 8 and EDS-MD 16 wired IoT device gateways support three convenient
configuration methods: Web Manager, Command Line Interface (CLI) and Extensible Markup
Language (XML). For more information about the Web Manager, see the EDS-MD Wired IoT
Device Gateway User Guide on the Lantronix website.
XML Architecture and Device Control
XML is a fundamental building block for Machine-to-Machine (M2M) and Internet of Things (IoT)
networks. The EDS-MD 4/8/16 wired IoT device gateway supports XML configuration records that
make configuring the wired IoT device gateway easy for users and administrators. XML
configuration records are easy to edit with a standard text editor or an XML editor.
For a brief overview of XML, see Chapter 4: Configuration Using XML. It provides rules on basic
XML syntax, a guide to the specific XML tags used, and a guide to using XML configuration
records.
Command Line Interface
The EDS-MD 4/8/16 wired IoT device gateway uses industry-standard tools for configuration,
communication, and control. For example, the EDS-MD 4/8/16 wired IoT device gateway 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 Chapter 5: Commands and Levels. 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 wired IoT device gateway.
