IP Address field

The IP Address field contains the IP address of the connected switcher. This value is encoded in the switcher’s flash memory.

Valid IP addresses consist of four 1-, 2-, or 3-digit numeric subfields, properly called octets, separated by dots (periods). Each octet can be numbered from 000 through

255.Leading zeroes, up to 3 digits total per octet, are optional. Values of 256 and above are invalid.

The factory-installed default address is 192.168.254.254, but if this conflicts with other equipment at your installation, you can change the IP address to any valid value.

NIP address changes can cause conflicts with other equipment. Only local system administrators should change IP addresses.

Gateway IP Address field

The Gateway IP Address field identifies the address of the gateway to the mail server to be used if the switcher and the mail server are not on the same subnet.

The gateway IP address has the same validity rules as the system IP address.

Subnet Mask field

The Subnet Mask field is used to determine whether the switcher is on the same subnet as the mail server when you are subnetting. For more information, see “Subnetting — A Primer”, in appendix A, “Ethernet Connection”.

MAC Address field

The Media Access Control (MAC) Address is hardcoded in the switcher and cannot be changed.

Date/Time Settings fields

The Date/Time Settings fields (figure 6-4) provide a location for viewing and setting the time functions.

Figure 6-4 Date/Time Settings fields

Change the date and time settings as follows:

1.

Click the desired variable’s drop box. The adjustable variables are month,

 

day, year, hours, minutes, AM/PM, and (time) zone. A drop down scroll box

 

appears (the year dropbox is selected in figure 6-4).

2.

Click the desired variable.

NIf setting the time, set the local time. The Zone variable allows you to then enter the offset from Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).

NThe Zone field identifies the standard time zone selected and displays the amount of time, in hours and minutes, that the local time varies from the GMT international time reference.
