IP Address, Netmask, IPX Network | USRobotics NETServer/16 specification

IP Address

This command is used to tell the NETServer what IP address will be used by the remote device. The default is 0.0.0.0., which disables the port for TCP/IP connections using PPP. Use the following command.

set location <location name> destination <IP address>

PPPlinks: If the IP Destination is set to 255.255.255.255, the NETServer will try to negotiate or learn the location’s IP address. This will work only with manual and continuous connection types. On-demand locations require a specified IP address (to know when to dial).

Netmask

This is the IP subnet mask for the remote location. It will be used to determine the network and host portions of the address given above. The default is 255.255.255.0, which would be appropriate for a Class C network with no subnetting or for Class C size subnets of larger networks. You must change this value if the remote location is using a different subnet mask. Use the following command:

set location <location name> netmask <netmask>

IPX Network

While a dial connection is up, it acts like a virtual network segment to which both the NETServer and the remote location are attached. This is the IPX network number that will be assigned to that virtual network segment. It is not the number of a physical cable on either network.

The IPX network number must be unique on both the remote and local networks; that is, no device or service may be using that exact network number. Use the following command:

set location <location name> ipxnet <IPX network number>

Command Reference 10-17
