The other part of what you want to do is device discovery - tell the rest of
the world what IP address the board has got.
The TS7500 default distribution includes avahi, which does what you want in a
Linux/Mac environment. Use google to find more information.
Alternatively you can use UPNP (Universal Plug N Play), a Microsoft invention,
if that is more suitable. I don't know of a publicly available UPNP client, so
I wrote my own. It wasn't particularly difficult but only works with some
variants of Windows. It may not be implemented properly so I'm not offering to
share it as I won't offer support on it.
As Martino says for the configuration page itself you will need to write CGI
server-side scripts, but you can probably do almost everything you want in
shell script.
Also, the TS7500 ships with Apache but badly configured. We use lighttpd.
