Software Installation
For the NPort's configuration, the default IP address of the NPort is:
LAN: Static; IP = 192.168.126.254; netmask = 255.255.255.0
WLAN: Static; IP = 192.168.127.254; netmask = 255.255.255.0
If the NPort is configured for DHCP, but the DHCP server cannot be
found, then the NPort will use the factory default IP settings.
NOTE If you have forgotten the NPort's IP address, use the Device
Search Utility (DSU) from your PC to locate the NPort. After
searching the LAN for NPort units, the DSU will display the IP
address of each unit.
NOTE Ethernet Bridge Disabled (default): Only one network
interface can be activated at a time. If the Ethernet link is
active, the WLAN will be inactive. If the WLAN is active, the
Ethernet link will be inactive.
Ethernet Bridge Enabled: The LAN and WLAN will both be
active. Go to the web console, find the network settings page,
and set Ethernet Bridge to Enabled.
You may log in with the account name admin and password moxa to
change any settings to meet your network topology (e.g., IP address)
or serial device (e.g., serial parameters). For first-time use, click the
Wizard in the left navigation panel. The wizard will prompt you to
configure the IP address, SSID, and security mode. For other settings,
use the factory defaults or change the settings for your application.
