- If Auto Config is not enabled, this field is editable and allows users to set a static IPv6 address.
Prefix length:
- If Auto Config is enabled, this field displays the prefix received from the router (not editable).
- If Auto Config is not enabled, this field is editable and allows setting a prefix.

- If Auto Config is enabled, this field is empty and not editable.
- If Auto Config is not enabled, this field is editable and allows users to set the default gateway.

l
Primary DNS Server:
Indicates the IP address of the main DNS server ensuring conversion of the domain
name to IP address.
l

Indicates the IP address of the secondary DNS server, ensuring conversion of the
domain name to IP address if the primary DNS server is not available.
l
SMTP Server (for Email Notification):
Indicates the name or IP address of the local server with which the card
connects to send e-mail messages. You can fill in the field either as host + domain name (DNS resolution) or
directly with the IP address.
The default value is
smtpserver
. The card uses the standard port (25) for sending e-mail messages.
l
SMTP server authentication:
Optional. To select this option, select the checkbox and enter the SMTP server
user name and password.
For security purposes, you must click

and enter the admin user name and password to save
modifications or run commands. The default user name and password are both
admin
.
Reboot the card after any changes to these parameters (see the following section, “System Settings” on
page 39).
NOTE 1
If the host name is not used, the IP address supplied by the DHCP server must be
assigned through Static DHCP Assignment to maintain the connection with the
clients installed on the stations to be protected.
NOTE 2
During the first connection, if the DHCP query is not successful, the Network
Card-MS starts with the following IP configuration:
IP Address: 192.168.1.2
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway Address: 0.0.0.0
