4.3 Protocol Configuration
Certain options can be conÞgured for each of the protocols supported by the MSS. For more information on protocol conÞguration, refer to MSS Reference Manual on the
4.3.1TCP/IP Parameters
¥Subnet Mask: This mask allows the server to decide at connection time whether a given TCP/IP host is part of the local network segment so that packets can be routed properly. A default subnet mask is created automatically when the MSSÕs IP address is conÞgured, but it can be overridden.
Ex: CHANGE SUBNET MASK 255.255.255.0
¥Name Resolution: Hosts on TCP/IP networks generally have a text hostname and a numeric IP address. The MSS can resolve text host names into the numeric equivalents needed for most connections, provided that a DNS (domain name server) has been conÞgured.
Ex: CHANGE NAMESERVER 192.0.1.167
