descriptions).

 

 

 

 

Table 3-3

 

Configure Internet Address Field Descriptions

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Internet Address

 

The identifier by which this interface (port) is

 

 

 

 

known on the network. It consists of four sets of

 

 

 

 

integer values (0 to 255) separated by periods (for

 

 

 

 

example, 192.2.3.6). The IP address must be

 

 

 

 

unique for each X.25 interface. It must also

 

 

 

 

specify a different subnet from the IP address of

 

 

 

 

any other X.25 or LAN interface on this system.

 

 

 

 

To obtain an IP address, see your system

 

 

 

 

administrator, network administrator, or HP

 

 

 

 

representative.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Subnet Mask

 

The subnet mask (like IP addresses) is composed

 

 

 

 

of four integers (0 to 255) separated by periods.

 

 

 

 

The subnet mask is used for routing.

 

 

 

 

When you enter an IP address, SMH places a

 

 

 

 

default subnet mask in the subnet mask field,

 

 

 

 

depending on the class of IP address you enter.

 

 

 

 

You may use the default or enter another one if

 

 

 

 

required. Table 3-4, “IP Address and Default

 

 

 

 

Subnet Masks,” shows the IP addresses listed by

 

 

 

 

class and their default subnet masks).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

IP Address Alias

 

The symbolic name (in alphanumeric format) by

 

 

 

 

which this network interface will be known on

 

 

 

 

the network. Use the Add/Modify Host Name

 

 

 

 

Aliases button to add or modify aliases.
