Moxa Industrial Smart Ethernet Switch
Management Functions
3-4
The IPv4 settings include the switch’s IP address and subnet mask, as well as the IP address of the default
gateway. In addition, input cells are provided for the IP addresses of a 1
st
and 2
nd
DNS server.
The IPv6 settings include two distinct address types—Link-Local Unicast addresses and Global Unicast
addresses. A Link-Local address makes the switch accessible over IPv6 for all devices attached to the same
local subnet. To connect to a larger network with multiple segments, the switch must be configured with a
Global Unicast address.
NOTE
If the Moxa industrial smart Ethernet switch is configured for other VLAN settings, make sure the PC host is
connected to the same management VLAN (default is 1) that the Moxa smart switch is connected to.
