Minicom Advanced Systems CMG-DCM Network Card User Manual


 
Operator's guide
net.eth.0.broadcast : The broadcast IP address used by the interface. This can
often be derived from the IP address by replacing numbers at the end with 255.
net.eth.0.gateway : The IP address of the gateway machine (router) on your
network.
net.eth.0.netmask : The network mask to use for the IP interface. A DCM with
an IP address in the domain 192.168.1.x would normally use a netmask of
255.255.255.0.
net.eth.0.netaddress : The network address of the DCM. A DCM with an IP
address in the domain 192.168.1.x would normally use a network address of
192.168.1.0.
Static routes
In addition to the standard IP routing mechanisms, you can define up to 4
additional static routes from the DCM to other parts of the network. These
routes are specified as arguments to the standard Unix route command. For
example, if you wanted the DCM to route traffic to and from IP addresses
beginning 192.168.0. over the eth0 interface, you would include the line
add -net 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 dev eth0
in the list.
For more information on the route command, please see its Linux manual
page.
