4.Click Yes in response to the following warning message to accept the new settings.

Unlock Server

The Unlock Server function is used to open a password protected switch so that the user can modify its configuration, import/export a configuration, etc. There are six possible responses under the Status column. The Status of a Moxa EtherDevice Switch indicates how the switch was located (by Moxa EtherDevice Switch Configurator), and what type of password protection it has.

The six options are as follows (note that the term Fixed is borrowed from the standard fixed IP address networking terminology):

yLocked

The switch is password protected, Broadcast Search was used to locate it, and the password has not yet been entered from within the current Configurator session.

yUnlocked

The switch is password protected, Broadcast Search was used to locate it, and the password has been entered from within the current Configurator session. Henceforth during this Configurator session, activating various utilities for this switch will not require re-entering the server password.

yBlank

The EDS is not password protected, and Broadcast Search was used to locate it.

yFixed

The EDS is not password protected, and Search by IP address was used to locate it manually.

yLocked Fixed

The EDS is password protected, Search by IP address was used to locate it manually, and the password has not yet been entered from within the current Configurator session.

yUnlocked Fixed

The EDS is password protected, Search by IP address was used to locate it manually, and the password has been entered from within the current Configurator session. Henceforth during this Configurator session, activating various utilities for this EDS will not require re-entering the server password.

Perform the following steps to unlock a locked EDS (i.e., a Moxa EtherDevice Switch with Status “Locked” or “Locked Fixed”). Highlight the server (from the Moxa EtherDevice Switch list in the

Configurator window’s left pane), and then click the Unlock toolbar icon , or select Unlock from the Configuration menu.

1.Enter the switch’s User Name and Password when prompted, and then click OK.
