Field	Function
Default Gateway	The default gateway is the IP address of
(nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn)	the router or other equipment on the local
	network segment that is used to direct
	traffic to and from the segment. Obtain an
	appropriate value from your network
	administrator.
Enable RIP?	Initially Yes appears on the screen. Press
	the space bar to toggle to No. Yes allows
	the terminal server to direct routers on the
	local network segment to use it as the
	gateway to devices connected to the
	terminal server via PPP.
Network-Loss Alarm Delay	Enter a time in seconds, from 0 to 255. If
Time	no network activity is detected for longer
	than the specified amount of time, the
	terminal server will generate a .NETDOWN
	alarm.

Overview of SNMP Support by Terminal Servers

SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is a TCP/IP protocol for network management. It allows compliant devices to be configured and/or to send error messages to Network Management software packages.

The terminal server can send SNMP traps based on alarm conditions detected in host devices or in the terminal server itself. Any alarm condition that can be listed in the Action Table can be sent to a management system via an SNMP Trap. Thus, the terminal server acts as an SNMP trap proxy agent for devices that deliver alarms via asynchronous RS-232 communication, via contact closures, or other non-network mechanisms.
