Basic Device Management - Moxa Technologies EtherDevice User Manual

Basic Device Management

In addition to using MOXA EtherDevice Server's fast Ethernet switching
ability, as described in the previous section, some users will also want to
take advantage of some of EDS's basic management and monitoring
functions. EDS functions that can be accessed over the LAN, after setting
up EDS's IP address, or that can be accessed via EDS's Console port,
include:
1. Monitor
2. Line-Swap fast recovery
3. Set device IP
4. Mirror port
5. Network segment integrity
6. Cable tester
7. Port/Server setup
To be able to access EDS's functions over the network (by Telnet or Web
Browser) from a PC host that is connected to the same LAN as EDS, you
need to make sure that the PC host and EDS are on the same logical
subnetwork. To do this, check your PC host's IP address and netmask. By
default, EDS's IP address is 192.168.127.253 and EDS's netmask is
255.255.0.0 (for a Class B network). If you do not change these values,
and your PC host's netmask is 255.255.0.0, then its IP address must have
the form 192.168.xxx.xxx. On the other hand, if your PC host's netmask is
255.255.255.0, then its IP address must have the form 192.168.127.xxx.
NOTE To use EDS's management and monitoring functions from a PC
host connected to the same LAN as EDS, you must make sure that
the PC host and EDS are on the same logical subnetwork.
