Subnet Mask Enter the subnet mask of the MCU’s IP card. If the

retrieved from the DHCP server and cannot be
modified. The detected number appears in the
card’s Properties-Settings-IP Network Parameters
box.

Static Routes
Routes Table Displays the list of static routes currently defined in
the system. Up to five routes can be defined in
addition to the Default router. The order in which the
routers appear in this list determines the order in
which the system will look for the endpoints on the
various networks, if not found on the local LAN.
To add a router to the Static Routes table, click the
plus (+) button. For more details see “Defining Static
Routes” on page 3-26. To delete a router from the
Static Routes table select the router to remove, and
then click the minus (-) button.
You can define one router with different destinations.
