Installing NPort Administrator

https://www.moxa.com/support/
). You
may find it in the
Resource
section under your product page. Run NPort Administrator when the installation
has been completed.
Searching for Device Servers over a LAN
The
Broadcast Search
function is used to locate all NPort 5400 device servers that are connected to the
same LAN as your computer. Since the
Broadcast Search
function searches by MAC address and not IP
address, all NPorts connected to the LAN will be located, regardless of whether or not they are part of the
same subnet as the host.
In NPort Administrator, click
Search
to search your LAN for NPort device servers. When your unit appears
in the search results, you may click
Stop
to end the search. You may also wait a few more moments for the
search to complete.
