Parameter Description
Interface Type Indicates IP over Ethernet.
IP Address
1
IP address of the switch you are managing when accessing the SNMP agent over
the network. The management agent supports SNMP over UDP/IP transport
protocol. In this environment, all systems on the Internet, such as network
interconnection devices and any PC accessing the agent (or running AccView) are
assigned an IP address.
Valid IP addresses consist of four numbers, of 0 to 255, separated by periods.
Anything outside of this format will not be accepted by the configuration program.
Subnet Mask
1
Subnet mask of the SNMP agent. This mask identifies the host address bits used
for routing to specific subnets.
Default Gateway
1
Gateway used to pass trap messages from the switch’s agent to the management
station. Note that the gateway must be defined if the management station is
located in a different IP segment.
IP State Specifies whether IP functionality is enabled via manual configuration, or set by
Boot Protocol (BOOTP). Options include:
USER-CONFIG - IP functionality is enabled based on the default or user specified
IP Configuration. (This is the default setting.)
BOOTP Get IP - IP is enabled but will not function until a BOOTP reply has been
received. BOOTP requests will be periodically broadcast by the switch in an effort
to learn its IP address.
1: The default value is null.
