5.7.4 Setting the TFTP Gateway IP Address
If the network TFTP server is located on a different IP subnet than the
2H28-08R, a Gateway IP address should be specified. To set the TFTP
Gateway IP address, perform the following steps:
1. Use the arrow keys to highlight the TFTP Gateway IP Addr field.
2. Enter the IP address of the TFTP gateway using the DDN format.
For example: 134.141.80.122
3. Press ENTER. If the TFTP gateway IP address entered is a valid
format, the cursor returns to the beginning of the TFTP Gateway IP
Address field. If the entry is not valid, the screen displays “INVALID
TFTP GATEWAY IP ADDRESS OR FORMAT ENTERED”. Local
Management does not alter the current value, but it refreshes the TFTP
Gateway IP Address field with the previous value.
4. Use the arrow keys to highlight the SAVE command.
5. Press ENTER. The message “SAVED OK” displays at the top of the
screen.
5.7.5 Setting the Device Date
The 2H28-08R is year 2000 compliant so that the Device Date field can
be set beyond the year 1999.
To set the device date, perform the following steps:
1. Use the arrow keys to highlight the Device Date field.
2. Enter the date in this format: MM/DD/YYYY
3. Press ENTER to set the system calendar to the date in the input field.
4. Use the arrow keys to highlight the SAVE command at the bottom of
the screen and press ENTER.
NOTE
It is not necessary to add separators between month, day, and
year numbers, as long as each entry has the correct number of
numeric characters. For example, to set the date to
03/17/1997, type “03171997” in the Device Date field.
