Moxa E Series Managed Ethernet Switch Featured Functions
3-5
Network
Network configuration allows users to configure both IPv4 and IPv6 parameters for management access over
the network. The Moxa switch supports both IPv4 and IPv6, and can be managed through either of these
address types.
IP Setting
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 1st and 2nd 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.
