If the SNMP management station is located on a different IP subnet than the 8H02-16, a default gateway must be specified. When an SNMP Trap is generated, the 8H02-16 sends the Trap to the default gateway. To set the default gateway, perform the following steps:

1.Use the arrow keys to highlight the Default Gateway field.

2.Enter the IP address of the default gateway using the DDN format. For example: 134.141.79.121

3.Press ENTER. If the default gateway entered is a valid format, the cursor returns to the beginning of the Default Gateway field. If the entry is not valid, the Event Message Line displays “INVALID DEFAULT GATEWAY OR FORMAT ENTERED”. Local Management does not alter the current value, but it does refresh the Default Gateway field with the previous value.

4.Use the arrow keys to highlight the SAVE command.

5.Press ENTER. The Event Message Line at the top of the screen displays “SAVED OK”.
