Figure 5-4 — System Settings page
The page is divided into two sections: IP Settings and Date/
Time Settings. There are three types of controls on the System
Settings page: simple fields with no drop boxes, fields with drop
boxes, and radio buttons.
Most IP protocol variables, such as the Unit Name, IP
Address, Gateway IP address, and Subnet Mask are
presented in simple fields.
The time and date variables are presented in fields with
drop boxes.
On/off and multiple choice selections are radio buttons.
All changes made on the System Settings page must be
confirmed by clicking the Submit button in the appropriate
section. Clicking the Cancel button abandons the changes.
IP Settings section
Unit Name field
The Unit Name field contains the locally-assigned name of the
GSS. This name field can be changed to any valid name, up to
24 alphanumeric characters.
N
The following characters are invalid in the unit name:
+ ~ , @ = ‘ [ ] { } < > ’ “ ; : | \ and ?.
Click the Submit button to take changes. Click the Cancel
button to abandon them.
DHCP radio buttons
The DHCP On radio button directs the GSS to ignore any
entered IP addresses and to obtain its IP address from a
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server (if the
network is DHCP capable). The DHCP Off radio button turns
DHCP off. Contact the local system administrator to determine
if DHCP is appropriate.
Click the Submit button to take changes. Click the Cancel
button to abandon them.
IP Address field
N
This field is grayed out and uneditable if DHCP is on.
The IP Address field contains the IP address of the GSS.
Valid IP addresses consist of four 1-, 2-, or 3-digit numeric
subfields (octets) separated by periods (dots). Each octet can be
numbered from 000 through 255. Leading zeroes, up to three
digits total per field, are optional. Values of 256 and above are
invalid.
The factory-installed default address is 192.168.254.254, but if
this conflicts with other equipment at your installation, you can
change the IP address to any valid value.
N
IP address changes can cause conflicts with other
equipment. Only local system administrators should
change IP addresses.
Click the Submit button to take changes. Click the Cancel
button to abandon them.
