Network
This menu provides configurable network access information for the
device’s management module. This information is needed to access the
device across the network (in-band management).
Table 4-7 describes each field in the Network menu.
Important: If you change the IP address, subnet
mask, or default gateway, the management module
needs to be reset in order for the changes to take
effect. See “Resetting a Group or Device ” on page 3-
20 for instructions.
Note: For instructions on using this menu, see “Configur-
ing Network Access Parameters” on page 3-10.
