Network

This menu provides configurable network access information for the device. This information is needed to access the device across the net- work (in-band management).

Table 5-7 describes each field in the Network menu.

Important: If you change the IP address, subnet mask, or default gateway, the AsantéHub 1016-IQ needs to be reset in order for the changes to take effect. See “Resetting the AsantéHub 1016-IQ ” on page 4-13 for instructions.

ΔNote: For instructions on using this menu, see “Configur- ing Network Access Parameters” on page 4-5.
