All ReadyLinks devices come with the ability to locally manage and configure the device via its web user interface or serial access port. This article provides instructions on how to access the serial interface and web UI of a ReadyLinks device.

Serial Interface

Each ReadyLinks device comes with either a standard RS-232 or a USB Type-C console port cable. Most ReadyLinks devices feature a combo USB Type-C/RJ45 console port interface, either port can be used for serial access, but note that both interfaces should not be used at the same time.

Using your serial access application of choice (i.e PuTTy), connect your PC to the ReadyLinks device and use the settings below to access the serial command line interface (CLI) of your device.

Web Interface

Every ReadyLinks device features a web based, Graphical User Interface (GUI), for device managment and monitoring. By default, access to this GUI is disabled.

Enable web GUI access

By default, ReadyLinks devices are provisioned as a DHCP client. Once the device is connected to a DHCP server, find the device's IP address, then open that address in a web browser.
