Description and Use

LAN: GATEWAY IP ADDRESS
The gateway unit connects two or more LANs and is used only if the message
server needs to communicate with another message server on a different network.
A typical example would be a Wide Area Network (WAN) connection. If a
gateway is used, its IP address must be configured here.
An IP address must be of the form M.N.O.P, where M = 1−223; N and O = 0−255,
and P = 1−254.
. This is the gateway unit in the data network (LAN), not to be confused with
the other types of the gateways, such as gateway unit used to connect Visual
Mailbox users from the Entryworks ACP board to the LAN or message
servers used as message gateways, or the OctelAccess server link.
System Parameters 235−240 and 242 are optional. These system parameters are only required when
accessing an existing LAN network and are used only if SNMP is to be used. The SNMP is not required
to support a dedicated LAN that connects only Octel 200/300 message servers.
. Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a standard protocol that allows a network
administrator on the LAN data network to request information from servers attached to the LAN
for the purposes of troubleshooting and network management. The SNMP management application
is typically an off-the-shelf software package run by a network administrator or technician on a
workstation or PC-compatible. Contact your network administrator to determine whether SNMP
management tools are available and how they could be useful. Refer to Appendix B, Simple
Network Management Protocol (SNMP), for additional information.
235 LAN: SNMP MANAGER IP ADDRESS
The IP address of the SNMP manager’s PC/workstation, which must be of the form
M.N.O.P, where M = 1−223; N and O = 0−255, and P = 1−254.
236 LAN: SNMP MANAGER HOST aSCII NAME
The host name of the SNMP manager’s PC/workstation, which can be up to 31
alphanumeric characters long.
237 LAN: SNMP LOCATION OF VOICE MAIL CABINET
The location is a descriptive field that specifies the location of the Octel 200/300,
which can be up to 31 characters.
238 LAN: SNMP NAME OF SYSTEM CONTACT
The name of the person who needs to be contacted in case of network trouble with
the Octel 200/300 (that is, the Octel 200/300 system administrator). Also, include
the person’s phone number, if known. The name can be up to 31 characters long.
