Avaya P117F(R) manual Agent Access Addresses

Chapter 3 Configuration

3 — Agent Access Addresses

This parameter stores IP addresses for the P117 agent’s communication interfaces in stand-alone mode. The interface addresses facilitate communication between the agent and the management station. By assigning an IP address to the agent interface, you make that interface available for agent-manager communications.

The agent also stores a Netmask for each communication interface. The Netmask defines which portion of the IP address represents the network ID and which portion represents the Host ID (or network node). Bits in the Netmask are set to one for all bits that correspond to the network portion of the IP address (i.e., 255 in decimal). Bits in the Netmask are set to zero for all bits that correspond to the Host ID of the IP address (i.e., 000). For example, if IP address 135.49.60.115 is assigned a Netmask of 255.255.255.000, it means that “135.49.60” defines the network (in this case, a subnet), and “115” defines the actual node (host) on that network.

To assign an IP address and/or Netmask:

1.Select Agent Access Addresses from the Setup Main Menu. This opens the sub-menu shown below.
