TCP/IP Parameters Screen

TheTCP/IPParameters screen is used to set the IP_ADDRESS of the station and if your net- work includes a gateway, the IP_NETWORK_MASK and the DEFAULT_GATEWAY address.

Figure 3-6. TCP/IP Parameters Screen

The values for these parameters (IP_ADDRESS, IP_NETWORK_MASK, and DE- FAULT_GATEWAY) should be assigned by the person in charge of the network (the net- work administrator). TCP/IP network administrators are familiar with these parameters and they are not described in this manual. It is important that these parameters are cor- rect, otherwise the Ethernet Interface may be unable to communicate on the network and/or network operation may be corrupted.

However, if you have a simple isolated network with no gateways, you can use the fol- lowing range of values for the assignment of local IP Addresses:

IP Address

Address as Configured on the Screen

3.0.0.1

003 000 000 001

 

 

3.0.0.2

003 000 000 002

 

 

3.0.0.3

003 000 000 003

...

...

3.0.0.255

003 000 000 255

Note

If the isolated network is ever connected to another network, the IP addresses 3.0.0.1 through 3.0.0.255 must not be used. The IP addresses must be assigned so that they are compatible with the connected network. Refer to Appendix G for more information on IP addressing.
