However, this architecture requires specific network configurations to allow MDM Tool to monitor the

remote devices.

Create a file named config on each remote device and provide the IP address of the Gateway.

gateway-hosts = tcp: IP Address: 16888

For examples, the parameter could be:

gateway-hosts = tcp: 201.63.45.2: 16888

3. The third architecture is constructed within the Intranet network. You need to install the MDM Tool

on the local computer, and both the MDM Tool program and MDM Gateway function will be activated once

you launch the MDM Tool. You also need to install MDM Agent and Gateway on the local devices and the

MDM Agent function must be activated.

Installing MDM Agent and Gateway

MDM Agent and Gateway should be installed on the local or remote computers or devices that you would like

to monitor and manage. Separate instructions are given below for different operating systems.

Installing MDM Agent and Gateway on Linux Models

1. Download the MDM Agent and Gateway for the model of embedded computer you are using from Moxa’s

website.

2. Use FTP to upload the files to the embedded computer’s /tmp directory.

3. Log in to the remote embedded computer as root.

4. Next, type the following commands:

cd /home

tar xvzf /tmp/MDM-DA66X-LX.tar.gz

Note: The filename of the MDM Agent and Gateway installation file includes the product model

name.
