Clear NVRAM (Toggle)
This allows the user to reset NVRAM to the factory default settings. All
user-entered parameters, such as IP address and Community Names are
then replaced with 6E12X-26 and 6E13X-25 default configuration
settings. For details, refer to
Section 5.15.13 .
IP Fragmentation (Toggle)
This field allows the user to enable or disable IP fragmentation. The
default setting for this field is ENABLED. If the 6E12X-26 or 6E13X-25
will be bridged to an FDDI ring, IP Fragmentation should be enabled. If
IP Fragmentation is disabled, all FDDI frames that exceed the maximum
Ethernet frame size will be discarded. For details on enabling or disabling
IP Fragmentation refer to
Section 5.15.14 .
5.15.1 Setting the IP Address
To set the IP address, perform the following steps:
1. Use the arrow keys to highlight the IP Address field.
2. Enter the IP address into this field using Decimal Dotted Notation
(DDN) format.
For example: 134.141.79.120
3. Press ENTER. If the IP address is a valid format, the cursor returns to
the beginning of the IP address field. If the entry is not valid, the Event
Message Line displays “INVALID IP ADDRESS OR FORMAT
ENTERED”. Local Management does not alter the current value and
refreshes the IP address field with the previous value.
4. Use the arrow keys to highlight the SAVE command, then press
ENTER. The warning screen shown in
Figure 5-19 displays.
NOTE
If the 6C105 chassis has been assigned an IP address, it is not
necessary to assign an IP address to the 6E12X-26 and
6E13X-25. All installed modules have the same IP address as
the chassis. If a separate IP address for the module is desired,
proceed as follows.
