Configuration
Setting Configuration Values
The following table describes the configuration values for the E2050 and the
applicable default (factory-set) values. The E2050 LAN/GPIB Gateway is
shipped from the factory with default settings for the configuration values
listed in the table. You can use the methods described in “Using
Configuration Methods” to change or set any of the configuration values as
needed.
The E2050 LAN/GPIB Gateway uses these default configuration values
until you explicitly change any value of these values and set any other
configuration values. The Gateway also uses these values when you press
the Gateway’s
Config Preset button (on the back panel of the Gateway).
NOTE
IP addresses for network devices are assigned by a designated Network
Administrator in your workplace. If you are not the Network Administrator,
you will need to contact the designated Network Administrator who can
assign the Gateway’s IP address for you.
Value Default Value Description
BOOTP ON/OFF ON This value is used to enable (ON) or disable (OFF) a BOOTP
or a BOOTP with TFTP configuration of the LAN/GPIB
Gateway. This value is only used with the Telnet configuration
method.
Default Subnet
Gateway Address
0.0.0.0 This value is the IP address of the default subnet gateway
that allows the E2050 LAN/GPIB Gateway to communicate
with systems that are not on the local subnet.
Thus, this is the default subnet gateway where packets are
sent which are destined for a device not on the local subnet,
as determined by the subnet mask setting. Only one default
subnet gateway can be configured. A value of 0.0.0.0
indicates that no subnetting is to be done.
Hardware Address
(MAC)
N/A This value is the unique address of the LAN interface in the
LAN/GPIB Gateway. (The LAN hardware address is also often
called the link-level address, the Ethernet station address, or
the LANIC ID.) The LAN hardware address is printed on a label
on the underside of the LAN/GPIB Gateway box.
