Using Set Device IP
To reduce the effort required to set up IP addresses, the Moxa switch comes equipped with DHCP/BootP server
and RARP protocol to set up IP addresses of Ethernet-enabled devices automatically.
When enabled, the Set device IP function allows the Moxa switch to assign specific IP addresses automatically
to connected devices that are equipped with DHCP Client or RARP protocol. In effect, the Moxa switch acts as
a DHCP server by assigning a connected device with a specific IP address stored in its internal memory. Each
time the connected device is switched on or rebooted, the Moxa switch sends the device the desired IP address.
Take the following steps to use the Set device IP function:
