The telnet protocol is disabled by default. Go to the Security > Device Security > Management
Interface section to enable the telnet function first.
Opening the Moxa switch’s Telnet or web console over a network requires that the PC host and Moxa switch
are on the same logical subnet. You might need to adjust your PC host’s IP address and subnet mask. By
default, the Moxa switch’s IP address is 192.168.127.253 and the Moxa switch’s subnet mask is
255.255.255.0. Your PC’s IP address must be set to 192.168.xxx.xxx if the subnet mask is 255.255.0.0, or
to 192.168.127.xxx if the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.
NOTE
When connecting to the Moxa switch’s Telnet or web console, first connect one of the Moxa switch’s
Ethernet ports to your Ethernet LAN, or directly to your PC’s Ethernet port. You can use either a straight-
through or cross-over Ethernet cable.
