Chapter 5: Local Management
5-44 6H128-08 and 6H129-08 User’s Guide
Application (Toggle)
Displays the application set for the COM port. This field allows you to set
the application that the COM port will support, which includes:
• Local Management (LM) via a terminal or modem connection
• Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS)
The UPS setting allows you to use the COM port to monitor an American
Power Conversion Smart Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS). For UPS,
the baud rate is automatically set to 2400.
The baud rate setting for LM is automatically sensed.
For details about how to configure the COM port for various applications,
refer to Section 5.15.11.
Clear NVRAM (Toggle)
This allows the user to reset NVRAM to the factory default settings. All
user-entered parameters, such as IP address and Community Names are
then replaced with 6H12X-08 default configuration settings. For details,
refer to Section 5.15.12.
IP Fragmentation (Toggle)
This field allows the user to enable or disable IP fragmentation. The
default setting for this field is ENABLED. If traffic from the 6H12X-08
will be bridged to an FDDI ring, IP Fragmentation should be enabled. If
IP Fragmentation is disabled, all FDDI frames that exceed the maximum
Ethernet frame size will be discarded. For details on enabling or disabling
IP Fragmentation refer to Section 5.15.13.
5.15.1 Setting the IP Address
To set the IP address, perform the following steps:
1. Use the arrow keys to highlight the IP Address field.
NOTE
If the 6C105 chassis has been assigned an IP address, it is not
necessary to assign an IP address to the 6H12X-08. All
installed modules have the same IP address as the chassis. If
a separate IP address for the module is desired, for security or
distributed management capabilities, proceed to step 1.
