Configuration Option Tables

Table A-2. Network Interface Options (2 of 2)

IMC IP Address

Possible Settings: 000.000.000.000 ± 223.255.255.255, Clear

Default Setting: 000.000.000.000

Specifies the Internet Protocol address used to access the unit via the IMC interface.

HIMC IP Address option does not appear when the In-Band Management Channel Rate (bps) is disabled.

000.000.000.000 ± 223.255.255.255 ± The range for the first byte is 000 to 223, with the exception of 127. The range for the remaining three bytes is 000 to 255.

Clear ± Clears the IMC IP address and sets to all zeros.

IMC Subnet Mask

Possible Settings: 000.000.000.000 ± 255.255.255.255, Clear

Default Setting: 000.000.000.000

Specifies the subnet mask used to access the unit via the IMC interface.

HIMC Subnet Mask option does not appear when the In-Band Management Channel Rate (bps) is disabled.

000.000.000.000 ± 255.255.255.255 ± Set the IMC interface subnet mask. The range for each byte is 000 to 255.

Clear ± Clears the IMC Subnet Mask and sets to all zeros. When the subnet mask is all zeros, the device creates a default subnet mask based on the class of IP address:

±Class A defaults to 255.000.000.000

±Class B defaults to 255.255.000.000

±Class C defaults to 255.255.255.000

IMC Routing Information Protocol

Possible Settings: None, Proprietary

Default Setting: Proprietary

The RIP routes IMC management information between devices.

HIMC Routing Information Protocol does not appear when the In-Band Management Channel Rate (bps) option is disabled.

None ± No routing protocol.

Proprietary ± Uses proprietary variant of RIP Version 1 to enable the routing of IP traffic between Paradyne devices.
