Ethernet profile information
Table 3-3 lists the parameters you use for configuring the MAX for your Ethernet LAN. As
you gather the necessary information, you can record your settings in the middle column. The
parameters are in the Ethernet > Mod Config profile. For this Quickstart configuration, you can
leave all other parameters in that profile at their default values. For detailed information about
the parameters in the following table, see the Reference Guide for your MAX.

Explanation
Ether Options >
IP Adrs/subnet mask
IP address and subnet mask of the MAX. A
slash (/) separates the mask from the address.
For example, 198.5.248.40/29 indicates that 29
bits of the IP address will be interpreted as
network bits.
WAN Options >
Pool#1 Start
(for dynamic IP
addressing)
The first IP address in an IP address pool. The
MAX chooses an address from the pool and
assigns it to an incoming call if Assign
Adrs=Yes in the Answer profile (the default) or
if the calling station requests an address
assignment.
WAN Options >
Pool#1 Count
(for dynamic IP
addressing)
The number of IP addresses in the IP address
pools. The MAX chooses an address from
these pools and assigns it to an incoming call if
Assign Adrs=Yes in the Answer profile (the
default) or if the calling station requests an
address assignment.
WAN Options >
Pool Only
(for dynamic IP
addressing)
With a setting of Yes, the MAX requires the
calling station to accept an IP address from an
IP address pool.
