use the Moxa switch’s URL (e.g., www.PT.company.com) to
open the web console instead of entering the IP address.
None
IP address for 2nd DNS

IPv6 Global Unicast Address Prefix (Prefix Length: 64 bits) Default Gateway
Setting Description Factory Default
Global Unicast Address
Prefix
The prefix value must be formatted according to the RFC 2373
“IPv6 Addressing Architecture,” using 8 colon-separated 16-
bit
hexadecimal values. One double colon may be used in the
address to indicate the appropriate number of zeros required to
fill the undefined fields.
None
IPv6 Global Unicast Address
Setting Description Factory Default
None Displays the IPv6 Global Unicast address. The network portion
of the Global Unicast address can be configured by specifying
the Global Unicast Prefix and using an EUI-64 interface ID in
the low order 64 bits. The host portion of the Global Unicast
address is automatically generated using the modified EUI-64
form of the interface identifier (Switch’s MAC address).
None
IPv6 Link-Local Address
Setting Description Factory Default
None The network portion of the Link-
Local address is FE80 and the
host portion of the Link-Local address is automatically
generated using the modified EUI-64 form of the interface
identifier (Switch’s MAC address)
None
IPv6 Neighbor Cache
The information in the neighbor cache that includes the neighboring node’s IPv6 address, the corresponding
Link-Layer address, and the current state of the entry.
Date and Time
The Moxa switch has a time calibration function based on information from an NTP server or user specified time
and date. Functions such as automatic warning emails can therefore include time and date stamp.
NOTE
The Moxa switch does not have a real time clock. The user must update the Current Time and Current Date
to set the initial time for the Moxa switch after each reboot, especially when there is no NTP server on the LAN
or Internet connection.
