Setting the Subnet Mask Address

This is a four-byte notation (specified by the system administrator) to resolve routing within your intranet. This address makes the library accessible through a subnet on a large network. An example of a subnet mask entry is 255.255.254.0.

To set the subnet mask address:

1.At the Network Config Menu, press an arrow button until the cursor underscores SUBNET MASK.

2.Press the [SELECT] button. An editing screen appears.

3.On the editing screen:

a.Press the up and down arrow buttons to select a value for each three- digit field in the address.

b.Press the [SELECT] button to move right to the next field.

c.Press the [MENU] button to move left to the previous field.

4.Press the [SELECT] button from the right-most field when the screen displays your desired setting to save the changes. (You may press the [MENU] button from the left-most field to abort.)

5.If you have already changed the library’s SCSI ID and are planning to exit the main Configuration Menu at this time, you must press the [RESET] button. If you wish to set other configuration values, continue with the next section.

If you have not changed the library’s SCSI ID and are not setting other configuration values, press the [MENU] button until you exit all menus.
