Using Line-Swap-Fast-Recovery
The Line-Swap Fast Recovery function, which is enabled by default, allows MOXA EtherDevice
Switch to return to normal operation very quickly after devices are unplugged and then re-plugged
into different ports. The recovery time is in the order of a few milliseconds. Compare this with
standard commercial switches for which the recovery time could be in the order of several minutes.
To disable the Line-Swap Fast Recovery function, or to re-enable the function after it has already
been disabled, access either the Console utility’s Line-Swap recovery page, or the Web Browser
interface’s Line-Swap fast recovery page, as shown next.

Using Set Device IP
To reduce the effort required to set up IP addresses, the EDS-408A/405A series comes equipped
with DHCP/BootP server and RARP protocol to automatically set up IP addresses of
Ethernet-enabled devices.
When enabled, the Set device IP function allows MOXA EtherDevice Switch to assign specific IP
addresses automatically to connected devices that are equipped with DHCP Client or RARP
protocol. In effect, MOXA EtherDevice Switch acts as a DHCP server by assigning a connected
device with a specific IP address stored in MOXA EtherDevice Switch’s internal memory. Each
time the connected device is switched on or rebooted, MOXA EtherDevice Switch sends the
device the desired IP address.
Take the following steps to use the Set device IP function:
