Chapter 3 Configuration
MAC Address:
The MAC address is for the local system to identify and locate each serial device
servers. This MAC address is already set before delivery from factory, hence no need
for further configuration.
IP Address, Subnet Mask, Default Gateway:
The IP address identifies your Modbus data gateway on the global network. Each
ADAM-4572, EKI-122X series has the same default IP address 10.0.0.1 and 10.0.0.2
for dual Ethernet ports. Obtain these specific IP addresses from your network admin-
istrator and then configure each Advantech Modbus gateway with individual IP
addresses, related Subnet Mask and Gateway Setting.

Note When you have finished the configuration of these settings for each cate-
gory, please press the “Apply” button in order to make these settings effec-
tive on the Modbus data gateway. (Will reboot your Modbus gateway
