6. At this point, the setup is complete. Click Previous to make additional changes to the settings,
or click Apply to save the settings to the VPort.
NOTE
The IP assigned status will be listed as Yes if the VPort has been assigned an IP address. If the
status is No, check to see if there is a problem with the DHCP network environment, or if the
model you are using does not support the auto IP assigned function.
Working in a Non-DHCP Server Networking Environment
If your VPort is connected to a network that does not have a DHCP server, then you will need to
configure the IP address manually. There are two ways to access the server:
1. If one VPort is connected to the network, open your web browser and type the default IP
address in the browser’s address box. In this case, the default IP address is 192.168.0.99 and
the default subnet mask is 255.255.255.0. Note that you may need to change your computer’s
IP address and subnet mask so that the computer is on the same subnet as the VPort.
2. If two or more VPorts are connected to the network, the default IP addresses are 192.168.0.99,
192.168.0.100, etc. In this case, you can use the MOXA VPort Installation Wizard utility to
determine the location of each VPort connected to the network. Since the VPort Installation
Wizard searches by MAC address, the VPort and computer must be connected to the same
Ethernet LAN for the VPort Installation Wizard to locate the VPort.
NOTE
VPort’s Network and Status LEDs can be used to determine if the VPort is transmitting and
receiving data over the network. Refer to the User’s Manual to see how to interpret the Network
and Status LEDs.
