Connection Menu > IP Group

Broadcast Enable

Enables/disables support for IP broadcasting.

Default: Disabled.

NAT Enable

Enables/disables NAT (Network Address Translation). With NAT enabled, only one IP address is used when communicating with remote sites via the external network. The real IP addresses of computers on the local LAN are never revealed to remote sites.

Default: Disabled.

Manual Dialing

Enables/disables manual dialing of this profile. With manual dialing enabled, this profile will NOT be automatically connected when data needs to be sent. Instead, you must manually connect the profile.

Note: When you enable this option for PPP profiles, the value of the Idle Timer is increased from 120 to 900 seconds.

Multicast Enable

Enables/disables support for IP multicasting. When disabled, IP multicast datagrams are not forwarded from the external network onto the internal Ethernet LAN. To allow computers on the internal LAN to subscribe to services that use IP multicasting as a delivery mechanism, you must enable this option.

Default: Disabled.

IP Address

Defines the IP address this connection profile should use when a static address is assigned to the Eicon 1530. In most cases, specify 0.0.0.0 to allow dynamic negotiation when the connection is established.

Subnet Mask

Defines the subnet mask this connection profile should use when a static address is assigned to the Eicon 1530.

Remote IP Address

Defines the IP address of the remote device to which this profile connects. Use this only in cases when a static IP address is assigned to the remote site. In most cases, specify 0.0.0.0 to allow dynamic negotiation of the address when the connection is established.
