6: Basic Parameters

 

 

 

 

Hostname & Name Servers

 

 

 

 

 

Hostname

The default host name is slbXXXX, where XXXX is the last

 

 

4 characters of the hardware address of Ethernet Port 1.

 

 

There is a 64-character limit (contiguous characters, no

 

 

spaces). The host name becomes the prompt in the

 

 

command line interface.

 

 

 

 

 

Domain

If desired, specify a domain name (for example,

 

 

support.lantronix.com). The domain name is used for host

 

 

name resolution within the SLB branch office manager. For

 

 

example, if abcd is specified for the SMTP server, and

 

 

mydomain.com is specified for the domain, if abcd cannot

 

 

be resolved, the SLB device attempts to resolve

 

 

abcd.mydomain.com for the SMTP server.

 

 

 

 

DNS Servers

DNS Servers #1 - #3

Configure up to three name servers. #1 is required if you choose to configure DNS (Domain Name Server) servers.

The first three DNS servers acquired via DHCP through Eth1 and/or Eth2 display automatically.

DHCP-Acquired DNS Servers

#1 - #3

Displays the IP address of the name servers if automatically assigned by DHCP.

GPRS-Acquired DNS Servers

#1 - #3

Displays the IP address of the name servers if automatically assigned by General Packet Radio Service (GPRS).

TCP Keepalive Parameters

Start Probes

Number of seconds the SLB branch office manager waits

 

after the last transmission before sending the first probe to

 

determine whether a TCP session is still alive. The default

 

is 600 seconds (10 minutes).

 

 

Number of Probes

Number of probes the SLB device sends before closing a

 

session. The default is 5.

 

 

Interval

The number of seconds the SLB branch office manager

 

waits between probes. The default is 60 seconds.

 

 

3.To save your entries, click the Apply button. Apply makes the changes immediately and saves them so they will be there when the SLB branch office manager is rebooted.

Ethernet Counters

The Network-Settings page displays statistics for each of the SLB Ethernet ports since boot-up. The system automatically updates them.

Note: For Ethernet statistics for a smaller time period, use the diag perfstat command.
