MOXA MXconfig Series

Introduction

Moxa’s MXconfig is a comprehensive Windows-based utility that is used to install, configure, and maintain multiple Moxa devices on industrial networks. This suite of useful tools helps users set the IP addresses of multiple devices with one click, configure the redundant protocols and VLAN settings, modify multiple network configurations of multiple Moxa devices, upload firmware to multiple devices, export or import configuration files, copy configuration settings across devices, easily link to web and Telnet consoles, and test device connectivity. MXconfig gives device installers and control engineers a powerful and easy way to mass configure devices, and it effectively reduces the setup and maintenance cost.

Device Discovery and Fast Group Configuration

• Easy broadcast search of the network for all supportedMoxa managed Ethernet devices

• Mass network setting (such as IP addresses, gateway,and DNS) deployment reduces setup time

• Deployment of mass managed functions increases configurationefficiency

• Security wizard for convenient setup of security-relatedparameters

• Multiple grouping for easy classification This featureis only available in the Java-supported version of MXconfig.

• User-friendly port selection panel provides physicalport descriptions This feature is only available in the Java-supportedversion of MXconfig.

• VLAN Quick-Add Panel speeds up setup time This featureis only available in the Java-supported version of MXconfig.

• Deploy multiple devices with one click using CLI execution

Fast Configuration Deployment

• Quick configuration: copies a specific setting to multiple devices and changes IP addresses with one click

Link Sequence Detection

• Link sequence detection eliminates manual configurationerrors and avoids disconnections, especially when configuring redundancyprotocols, VLAN settings, or firmware upgrades for a network in adaisy-chain topology (line topology).

• Link Sequence IP setting (LSIP) prioritizes devices andconfigures IP addresses by link sequence to enhance deployment efficiency,especially in a daisy-chain topology (line topology).

Unlock Devices and User Privileges

• Massdevice unlocking and password file export for quick unlocks.

• Threeuser privilege levels to enhance management flexibility and security:Admin, Supervisor, and Operator. This feature is only availablein the Java-supported version of MXconfig.

Configuration Overview and Documentation

• Useful mass status overview and configuration check foreach managed function.

• Generate reports on each managed function for multipledevices in the network. This feature is only available in the Java-supportedversion of MXconfig.

• Export multiple configuration files with flexible filenamesand import multiple configuration files to multiple devices.

• Export device list for easy backup, and import devicelist for quick searching This feature is only available in theJava-supported version of MXconfig.
