Field Purpose
MAC Address The hardware address of the port, assigned at the factory.
If you are configuring a ConneXtions H.323 Gateway, the
MAC address is the address of the network interface card of
the computer that hosts the gateway program.
ConneXtions generates the address automatically, so do
not enter a MAC address for H.323 Gateway.
For information about installing line cards and determining
each port’s MAC address, see the
NBX Installation Guide .
The format for a MAC Address is XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX. Each
X represents a hexadecimal digit (0 through f).
