5.7.2 Setting the Subnet Mask
If the management workstation that is to receive SNMP traps from the
6C105 is located on a separate subnet, the subnet mask for the 6C105
must be changed from its default.
To change the subnet mask from its default, perform the following steps:
1. Use the arrow keys to highlight the Subnet Mask field.
2. Enter the subnet mask into this field using Decimal Dotted Notation
(DDN) format.
For example: 255.255.255.0
3. Press ENTER. If the subnet mask is valid, the cursor returns to the
beginning of the Subnet Mask field. If the entry is not valid, the Event
Message Line displays “INVALID SUBNET MASK OR FORMAT
ENTERED”. Local Management does not alter the current value, but
it does refresh the Subnet Mask field with the previous value.
4. Use the arrow keys to highlight the SAVE command, then press
ENTER. The changes are saved to memory.
5.7.3 Setting the Chassis Date
The 6C105 is year 2000 compliant, so the Chassis Date may be set
beyond the year 1999. To set the chassis date, perform the following
steps:
1. Use the arrow keys to highlight the Chassis Date field.
2. Enter the date in this format: MM/DD/YYYY
NOTE
When a valid IP address is assigned, the Subnet Mask field
automatically enters the default mask that corresponds with
class of IP entered in the IP Address field. Some firmware
revisions do support changing the chassis subnet mask from
the default value. Refer to your Release Notes to ensure that
the Subnet Mask is a modifiable field.
NOTE
It is not necessary to add separators between month, day, and
year numbers. For example, to set the date to 01/17/1998, type
“01171998” in the Chassis Date field.
