Configuration by Web Browser
The Moxa EDS-828’s web browser interface provides a convenient way to modify the switch’s configuration and
access the built-in monitoring and network administration functions. The recommended web browser is
Microsoft Internet Explorer with JVM (Java Virtual Machine) installed.
NOTE To use the EDS-
828’s management and monitoring functions from a PC host connected to the same LAN as
the EDS-828, you must make sure that the PC host and the EDS-828 are on the same logical subnetwork.
NOTE If the EDS-
828 is configured for other VLAN settings, you must make sure your PC host is on the management
VLAN. Refer to the “Configuring 802.1Q VLAN” in Chapter 3 for the VLAN settings.
NOTE Before accessing the EDS-828’s web browser interface, first connect one of its RJ45 Ethernet ports to your
Ethernet LAN, or directly to your PC’s Ethernet NIC. You can establish a connection with either a
straight-through or cross-over Ethernet cable.
NOTE The EDS-828’s default IP is 192.168.127.253.
