Configuration

Setting Configuration Values

NOTE

IP addresses for network devices are assigned by a designated Network Administrator in your workplace. If you are not the Network Administrator, you will need to contact the designated Network Administrator who can assign the Gateway’s IP address for you.

The following table describes the configuration values for the E2050 and the applicable default (factory-set) values. The E2050 LAN/GPIB Gateway is shipped from the factory with default settings for the configuration values listed in the table. You can use the methods described in “Using Configuration Methods” to change or set any of the configuration values as needed.

The E2050 LAN/GPIB Gateway uses these default configuration values until you explicitly change any value of these values and set any other configuration values. The Gateway also uses these values when you press the Gateway’s Config Preset button (on the back panel of the Gateway).

Value

Default Value

Description

 

 

 

BOOTP ON/OFF

ON

This value is used to enable (ON) or disable (OFF) a BOOTP

 

 

or a BOOTP with TFTP configuration of the LAN/GPIB

 

 

Gateway. This value is only used with the Telnet configuration

 

 

method.

 

 

 

Default Subnet

0.0.0.0

This value is the IP address of the default subnet gateway

Gateway Address

 

that allows the E2050 LAN/GPIB Gateway to communicate

 

 

with systems that are not on the local subnet.

 

 

Thus, this is the default subnet gateway where packets are

 

 

sent which are destined for a device not on the local subnet,

 

 

as determined by the subnet mask setting. Only one default

 

 

subnet gateway can be configured. A value of 0.0.0.0

 

 

indicates that no subnetting is to be done.

 

 

 

Hardware Address

N/A

This value is the unique address of the LAN interface in the

(MAC)

 

LAN/GPIB Gateway. (The LAN hardware address is also often

 

 

called the link-level address, the Ethernet station address, or

 

 

the LANIC ID.) The LAN hardware address is printed on a label

 

 

on the underside of the LAN/GPIB Gateway box.
