WM Configuration

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

VBrick Host Name

 

The Host Name defaults to the Media Access Control (MAC)

 

 

 

address, a hardware address that uniquely identifies each node of a

 

 

 

network. The VBrick's Host Name acts to identify the VBrick to

 

 

 

various network applications including DHCP, SNMP and VBrick

 

 

 

application tools. The Host Name syntax can be a maximum of 18

 

 

 

characters, the first character must be a letter and the rest can be letters,

 

 

 

numbers or hyphens.

 

 

 

 

 

Network Interface

 

The settings for Interface Speed and Interface Type are

 

Speed

 

interdependent. They must both be set to Automatic or they must

 

 

 

both be set manually. Manual settings should be used only in the

 

 

 

rare case when the VBrick is attached to network equipment that

 

 

 

does not support auto negotiation. The VBrick's capabilities may

 

 

 

be limited when its Ethernet link is at 10 Mbps and/or Half

 

 

 

Duplex. If auto negotiation fails, the VBrick defaults to 10Mbit,

 

 

 

half duplex and attempts "parallel detection," an alternative way to

 

 

 

sense speed. Status parameters are available on the network status

 

 

 

screen to indicate the state of the link and the current

 

 

 

configuration of the Ethernet hardware. In auto mode, they reflect

 

 

 

the results of the negotiation and in manual mode they follow the

 

 

 

configuration options.

 

 

 

(10Mb, 100Mb, Automatic). This allows the Ethernet interface of

 

 

 

the VBrick to be manually forced to 100 Mbps or 10 Mbps. The

 

 

 

default setting is "Automatic" which enables auto negotiation in

 

 

 

the VBrick so it will automatically match its speed setting to the

 

 

 

speed of the switch or hub to which it is attached. "Automatic" is

 

 

 

the default and recommended setting.

 

 

 

 

 

Network Interface Type

Half-Duplex, Full-Duplex, or Automatic. This allows the Ethernet

 

 

 

interface of the VBrick to be manually forced to Full Duplex or

 

 

 

Half Duplex. The default setting is Automatic which enables auto

 

 

 

negotiation in the VBrick so it will automatically match its duplex

 

 

 

setting to that of the switch or hub that it is attached to. Automatic

 

 

 

is the default and recommended setting.

 

 

 

 

 

Maximum Transmission

Range 1024–1500 (default = 1500). The MTU is used for all

 

Unit Size

 

network traffic from the VBrick and defines the largest network

 

 

 

packet size that will be transmitted. A higher MTU brings higher

 

 

 

bandwidth efficiency and VBrick recommends using the default.

 

 

 

However you may wish to reduce MTU size to meet the

 

 

 

requirements of some networks with VPN or other security tunnels

 

 

 

that cannot tolerate 1500-byte packets. Note that WM video

 

 

 

playback on Vista PCs may be suboptimal with small MTU settings.

 

 

 

 

 

Domain Name Server

 

 

 

 

Primary Server IP

This is the primary server used for DNS.

 

Address

 

 

 

 

 

 

Secondary Server IP

This is the secondary server used for DNS.

 

address

 

 

 

 

 

 

Default Domain

This is the domain name used for DNS. Note: You can keep the default

 

Extension

(blank) values.
