Getting Started
This chapter explains how to access the Industrial Secure Router for the first time. There are three ways to
access the router: (1) serial console, (2) Telnet console, and (3) web browser. The serial console connection
method, which requires using a short serial cable to connect the Industrial Secure Router to a PC’s COM
port, can be used if you do not know the Industrial Secure Router’s IP address. The Telnet console and web
browser connection methods can be used to access the Industrial Secure Router over an Ethernet LAN, or
over the Internet. A web browser can be used to perform all monitoring and administration functions, but
the serial console and Telnet console only provide basic functions.

ATTENTION
We strongly suggest that you do NOT use more than one connection method at the same time. Following
this advice will allow you to maintain better control over the configuration of your Industrial Secure Router.
NOTE
We recommend using Moxa PComm Terminal Emulator, which can be downloaded free of charge from
Moxa’s website.
Before running PComm Terminal Emulator, use a USB-C-to-DB9-F (or USB-C-to-DB25-F) cable to connect
the Industrial Secure Router’s RS-232 console port to your PC’s COM port (generally COM1 or COM2,
depending on how your system is set up).
After installing PComm Terminal Emulator, perform the following steps to access the RS-232 console utility.
