Configuring the ATS Network Management Interface
Configuration overview
You must configure the following TCP/IP settings before the ATS can operate on a network:
•IP address of the ATS (only needed for manual address assignment)
•Subnet mask
•Default gateway

The ATS will use the default gateway to test the network at times when traffic is very light. Refer to “Watchdog Features” in the “Introduction” of the InfraStruXure Power Generation System’s

•Networked computer (see “Remote access to the control console” on page 55).
