Administering the Definity Switch 4-17
Field Definition
Route Number If the link between the switch and the CMS
computer is a dedicated link through a hub,
you only need to assign one IP route. If you
are going through a router, you must set up
IP route 1 from the switch to the router, and
then set up IP route 2 from the switch to the
CMS computer. The example above shows a
simple IP route.
Destination Node This field represents the node name of the
destination for this route. You would typically
enter the node name for the CMS computer
or a router, depending on your configuration.
Gateway Enter the node name of the gateway by
which the destination node is reached for this
route. This is either the local C-LAN port or
the first intermediate node between the
C-LAN port and the final destination. For
example, if there were one or more routers
between the C-LAN port and the final
destination node (the CMS computer), the
gateway would be the node name of the first
router.
C-LAN Board Enter the equipment location of the CLAN
circuit pack that provides this route.
Metric Specifies the complexity of this IP route.
Enter 0 if there are no intermediate nodes
between the switch C-LAN port and the
ethernet port on the CMS computer. A metric
value of 1 is used only on a switch that has
more than one C-LAN circuit pack installed.
See
DEFINITY ECS Administration for Network Connectivity for more information
about using this field.
Route Type Specifies whether the route is host or
network (default). Use a Host route to get to
a specific IP address. Use a Network route to
get to a subnet.
