=== Serial connection ===
Parameters for the serial connection are: baud rate = 9600, 8N1, no flow control.

=== ExaLINK as a DHCP client ===
By default, the ExaLINK is configured as a DHCP client which falls back to the static IP address (defaulted to 192.168.0.100) if the DHCP request times out after 60 seconds.
The ExaLINK will send its serial number (displayed on the side of the ExaLINK) as the name in the DHCP request. For setups where this name is automatically passed to the DNS server, the ExaLINK can be resolved by this serial number. If you wish to specify a static IP address for the ExaLINK

=== Accessing the ExaLINK ===
The ExaLINK is accessed using its IP address, or via the serial port on the front panel. You will be asked to enter the login user name and password. The user name is “admin” and cannot be changed, however the password can be changed. The default password is “admin”.

=== Privileged mode ===
The ExaLINK has two modes of operation: unprivileged for viewing, and privileged when you want to make changes to the system.
The privileged mode requires the “privileged password”. The default for this password is blank (just press Enter).

 === Redirect ports ===
 The easiest way to think of the connectivity options supported is to consider that every port output (TX) can be driven from any single port input (RX). This allows arbitrary bidirectional connections between any set of two ports and also the ability to replicate data (for market data distribution or monitoring) from one port’s RX to multiple ports’ TX.
+Redirecting port from command line:
-Enter “set port redirect <input port> <output port range>” to assign connections between ports.
+<syntaxhighlight>
-Example: “set port redirect 1 12-30,49”. This replicates data coming into port 1 and outputs that replicated data on ports 12-30 and 49.
+set port redirect <input port> <output port range>
-Example: “set port redirect 5 33; set port redirect 33 5”. These two commands create a bi-directional connection between port 5 and port 33.
+</syntaxhighlight>
-Example: “set port redirect 1 *”. This replicates data on port 1 out to ALL 50 ports.
+E.g:
-Example: “set port redirect - 1”. This clears a redirection to port 1.
