Moxa Managed DSL Ethernet Extender Featured Functions
3-12
Ethernet Link-Down Mode
If either the CO or CPE Ethernet link is down, the IEX series will disable the corresponding Ethernet connection
so that data can no longer be sent but keeps the DSL connection alive. As a result, Ethernet-enabled devices
such as the switch or end devices connected to the DSL Ethernet extenders will be notified about the failed
connection. Once the Ethernet link is up again, the IEX series will try to fast recover the connection without DSL
re-training. The system logs will record link up/down events.
DSL Link-Down Mode
When the DSL connection is down, the IEX series will immediately disable both CO and CPE Ethernet
connections to avoid packets being sent through the failed path. The IEX series will try to re-establish the
Ethernet link when the DSL connection is stable again. The system logs will record link up/down events.
Network Parameters
Network configuration allows users to configure both IPv4 and IPv6 parameters for management access over
the network. The Moxa DSL Ethernet extender supports both IPv4 and IPv6, and can be managed through
