Probe Configuration Using a Local Terminal

Probe Configuration Using a Local Terminal

 

 

An initial configuration of the probe is necessary before it can communicate over

 

 

the LAN telemetry network interface or serial port. The WAN interface must be

 

 

configurated before monitoring can occur. You perform the configuration by using

 

 

a series of configuration menus that provide a number of options (fields) to choose

 

 

from.

 

 

 

NOTE

This chapter covers all the information you will need to perform the initial

 

 

configuration of the probe with the exception of, the TFTP Download new

 

 

firmware and XMODEM Download new firmware menu items and the Warm

 

 

start and Exit and Cold start and Exit menu items. These topics are explained

 

 

in Chapter 6 “Download New Firmware” and Chapter 5 “Probe Operation”,

 

 

respectively.

 

 

The initial configuration for the Ethernet LAN Telemetry network (10Base-T or

 

 

 

 

100Base-TX) communication includes:

 

 

IP Address

 

 

Default Gateway IP Address (if required)

 

 

zSubnet Mask (if required)

 

 

Autodiscovery Echo Interval

 

 

The initial configuration for the optional Token-Ring LAN Telemetry interface

 

 

includes:

 

 

zRing Speed

 

 

Ring Number

 

 

The following configuration parameters are used to display time and date

 

 

information in the user interface only. A separate internal clock is used to time-

 

 

stamp data collected from the network.

Date

zTime Time Zone
