Network Settings

Note: Configurations with the same IP subnet on multiple interfaces (Ethernet or PPP) are not currently supported.

Network Setting

Description

Eth 1 Settings

Obtain from DHCP: Acquires IP address, subnet mask, hostname and gateway

 

from the DHCP server. (The DHCP server may not provide the hostname

 

gateway, depending on its setup.) This is the default setting. If you select this

 

option, skip to Gateway.

 

Obtain from BOOTP: Lets a network node request configuration information from

 

a BOOTP "server" node. If you select this option, skip to Gateway.

 

Specify: Lets you manually assign a static IP address, generally provided by the

 

system administrator.

 

 

IP Address

Enter an IP address that is unique and valid on your network. There is no default.

(if specifying)

Enter all IP addresses in dot-quad notation. Do not use leading zeros in the fields

 

for dot-quad numbers less than 100. For example, if your IP address is

 

172.19.201.28, do not enter 028 for the last segment.

 

Note: Currently, the SLC 8000 advanced console manager does not support

 

configurations with the same IP subnet on multiple interfaces (Ethernet or PPP).

 

 

Subnet Mask

If specifying an IP address, enter the subnet mask for the network on which the SLC

 

unit resides. There is no default.

 

 

Default Gateway

The IP address of the router for this network. There is no default.

 

 

Hostname

The default host name is slcXXXX, 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 SLC 8000 advanced console

 

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 SLC unit

 

attempts to resolve abcd.mydomain.com for the SMTP server.
