the user name and password for the device. If you do not know the user name
and password for the device, contact the system administrator who initially set up
the device.

Assigning an IP Address to the FireLine
There are several ways to assign an IP address to a FireLine Ethernet:
• Using the Digi Device Setup Wizard.
• Using Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) from the default web
interface (only for changing the IP address once it has been assigned).
• Using the Command-Line Interface.
• Using Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA), also known as Auto-IP.
This section describes how to configure the device with the Digi Setup Wizard.
To use the other methods, refer to the “Digi Connect Family User Guide”
supplied on the CD with your FireLine Ethernet modem.
