Overview You must configure the following TCP/IP settings before the
Management Card can operate on a network:
• The
IP address of the Management Card
• The subnet mask
• The default gateway
TCP/IP
configuration
methods
Use one of the following methods to define the TCP/IP settings
needed by the Management Card:
• The APC Management Card Wizard (see “APC
Management Card Wizard” on page 11)
• A DHCP or BOOTP server (see “BOOTP & DHCP
configuration” on page 11)
• A local computer (see “Local access to the control
console” on page 14)
• A networked computer (see “Remote access to the
control console” on page 15)
Note
If a default gateway is unavailable, use the
IP address of a computer located on the
same subnet as the Management Card that
is usually running. The Management Card
uses the default gateway to test the network
when traffic is very light. See “Watchdog
Features” in the “Introduction” of the
Network Management Card User’s Guide
(.\doc\usrguide.pdf) for more information
about the watchdog role of the default
gateway.
