Management Port Link Protocol

Possible Settings: PPP, SLIP

Possible Settings: 000.000.000.000 ± 223.255.255.255, Clear

Default Setting: 000.000.000.000

IP address to use when a call is initiated using the Alternate Directory Phone Number. If this address is all zeros, the Management Port IP Address is used.

000.000.000.000 ± 223.255.255.255 ± Sets the alternate Management port IP address. 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 IP address and sets to all zeros.

Alternate Mgmt Port Subnet Mask

Possible Settings: 000.000.000.000 ± 255.255.255.255, Clear

Default Setting: 000.000.000.000

±Class B defaults to 255.255.000.000

±Class C defaults to 255.255.255.000
