Lantronix SGX 5150 IoT Device Gateway SGX 5150 Command Reference - Page 10

2: Overview The SGX 5150 IoT device gateway supports three convenient configuration methods: Web Manager, CLI, and XML. For more information about Web Manager, see the SGX 5150, SGX 5150 MD, and SGX 5150 XL IoT Device Gateway User Guide available at www.lantronix.com/ support/documentation. XML Architecture and Control XML is a fundamental building block for Machine-to-Machine (M2M) and Internet of Things (IoT) networks. The SGX 5150 IoT device gateway supports XML configuration records that make configuring the SGX 5150 unit 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 4: Configuration Using XML. It provides guidelines for basic XML syntax, the specific XML tags used, and XML configuration records. Command Line Interface Making the edge-to-enterprise vision a reality, the SGX 5150 IoT device gateway uses industrystandard tools for configuration, communication, and control. For example, the SGX 5150 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 6: 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 SGX 5150 IoT device gateway. Web API The Web APIs are RESTful APIs that allow access to a subset of gateway functions through a standard HTTP request. They can be used to export and import configuration, export status, take a status action, and manipulate the file system. For Web API details and a list of actions, see 5: Configuration Using Web API. SGXTM 5150 IoT Device Gateway Command Reference 10
