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. To begin with, we point out that 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):
! Locked
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.
! Unlocked
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.
! Blank
EDS is not password protected, and “Broadcast Search” was used to locate it.
