Device IP Address
If using IP, a unique IP address must be specified in
this field. If you do not know your IP address, consult your network
administrator. You can change the IP address using this field; for the
change to take effect, you must reset the Switch 1005.
Device SubNet Mask
If using IP, type in a suitable network mask. For a
class B IP address, 255.255.0.0 is suitable. For more information, see
your network administrator. You can change the Device SubNet Mask
using this field; for the change to take effect, you must reset the
Switch.
Default Router
If a default router exists on your network, type in the IP
address here. You can change the Device Router IP address using this
field; for the change to take effect, you must reset the Switch 1005.
BOOTP Select
Enabled/Disabled
If BOOTP is enabled and you have a
BOOTP server on your network, an IP address will be automatically
mapped to the Switch when it is first powered up. In addition to
mapping an IP address, BOOTP can assign the subnet mask and
default router. Using a BOOTP server avoids having to configure devices
individually.
There are four entries under the following four fields; one for each data
link layer protocol that can be used by IPX.
IPX Network
This field shows the address of the network for this
protocol. This address is learned automatically from the local IPX
router or Netware file server, and you do not need to change it.
Node
This read-only field shows the node address of the Switch
1005 which is learned automatically.
Status
Enabled/Disabled
If this field is set to
Enabled
, the Switch
1005 supports SNMP over IPX. For security, set this field to
Disabled
if you do not require SNMP over IPX.
Data Link Protocol
This field shows the name of the IPX data link
layer protocol.
