∙ | Default Gateway: Sets the IP default gateway address |
∙ | Default: 0.0.0.0 |
IP DNS: Enables/Disables DNS client on the module | |
∙ | Default: disable |
Pri DNS: Sets the Primary DNS IP address | |
∙ | Default: 0.0.0.0 |
Sec DNS: Sets the Secondary DNS IP address | |
∙ | Default: 0.0.0.0 |
DHCP Client: Enables/Disables DHCP Client | |
| Note: |
| o DHCP info parameters DHCP netmask, Gateway, DNS and DHCP server will be set if the module obtains IP address from DHCP server |
| successfully. These cannot be modified. |
| o If DHCP Client fails to contact the DHCP Server, after a finite number of retries, initializes the eth0 with static ip address. It checks periodically |
| and retries to obtain an IP address from a DHCP server |
∙ | Default: enable |
IP Address: If DHCP is disabled, sets the static IP address of the module. If DHCP is enabled, the ip address given by the DHCP server is displayed and its | |
| not configurable. |
| Note: |
| o When the static ip address is modified, the browser gets redirected to new ip address. |
∙ | Default: 192.168.2.1 |
TFTP: Enables/Disables TFTP Server. On enabling the TFTP Server, the network administrator can upload the firmware to the flash | |
| Notes: |
| TFTP application is associated with "inetd" application |
| Configuration change of TFTP service calls for a |
| The other application(s) that are associated with "inetd" are Telnet Server |
| Hence when enabling/disabling TFTP through a Telnet configuration, would terminate the current telnet sessions |
∙ | Default: enable |
TCP Keepalive: Sets the tcp keepalive timeout (minutes) value. This is used to terminate the TCP session if there is no traffic | |
∙ | Default: 3 minutes |
Autodiscovery: Enables/Disables | |
| (default 1020) |
∙ | Default: enable |
Server Port: Sets the Auto Discovery Manager Server port | |
∙ | Default: 1020 |
Broadcast Timer: | |
∙ | Default: 10 seconds |
AG Server: Starts the UDP server on port 526. Starts a Tcp server on port 599. Uses proprietary Multitech Asynchronous Gateway Protocol (AG). | |
| o Discovery mechanism - UDP server responds with UDP unicast packet to the UDP broadcast packet from WinMCSI Port Redirector |
| o Status mechanism - TCP server responds to the Status Request packet from the WinMCSI Port Redirector Client |
| Default: disable |
∙Auto Dialout: Enables/Disables
Default: enable
∙Auto Dialin: Enables/Disables
Default: disable
Telnet Configuration
∙Telnet: Enables/Disables the Telnet Server used for Command Line Configuration. On disabling Telnet server, the administrator cannot configure the IP Module through Telnet. The only option is to connect through a terminal application over the Serial port
Default: enable
∙Telnet Port: Sets the telnet port used for Command Line Configuration Notes:
Telnet application is associated with "inetd" application
Modification to the telnet port calls for a
The other application(s) that are associated with "inetd" are TFTP Server. Hence, invoking this command would terminate the current telnet sessions Default: 23
∙Escape Monitor: Enables/Disables ‘‘monitor’’ flag to scan escape s equence and switch to command mode during Manual dialout session
Default: enable
