Parameter | Default | Description |
|
|
|
Interface Type | Ethernet | Indicates IP over Ethernet. |
|
|
|
IP Address | 0.0.0.0. | IP address of the module you are managing when |
|
| accessing the agent module over the network. The |
|
| agent module supports SNMP over UDP/ IP transport |
|
| protocol. In this environment, all systems on the |
|
| Internet, such as network interconnection devices and |
|
| any PC accessing the agent module (or running |
|
| NetSight) must have an IP address.Valid IP addresses |
|
| consist of four numbers, from 0 to 255, that are |
|
| separated by periods (nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn). Anything |
|
| outside of this format will not be accepted by the |
|
| configuration program. |
|
|
|
Subnet Mask | 255.255. 0.0 | Subnet mask of the agent you have selected. This |
|
| mask identifies the host address bits used for routing to |
|
| specific subnets. |
|
|
|
Gateway IP | 0.0.0.0 | Gateway used to pass trap messages from the switch’s |
|
| agent to the management station. Note that the |
|
| gateway must be defined if the management station is |
|
| located in a different IP segment. |
|
|
|
IP State |
| Specifies whether IP functionality is enabled via |
|
| manual configuration, or set by Boot Protocol |
|
| (BOOTP). Options include |
|
| |
|
| based on the default or |
|
| Configuration, which is the default. |
|
| BOOTP Get IP — The IP is enabled but will not |
|
| function until a BOOTP reply has been received. |
|
| BOOTP requests will be periodically broadcast by the |
|
| switch in an effort to learn its IP address. (BOOTP |
|
| values can include the IP address, default gateway, |
|
| subnet mask, TFTP boot file name, and TFTP |
|
| server IP.) |
