are not currently supported.
Network Setting
Description
Eth 1 Settings
Obtain from DHCP:
Acquires IP address, subnet mask, hostname and gateway
from the DHCP server. (The DHCP server may not provide the hostname
gateway, depending on its setup.) This is the default setting. If you select this
option, skip to
Gateway
.
Obtain from BOOTP:
Lets a network node request configuration information from
a BOOTP "server" node. If you select this option, skip to
Gateway
.
Specify:
Lets you manually assign a static IP address, generally provided by the
system administrator.
IP Address
(if specifying)
Enter an IP address that is unique and valid on your network. There is no default.
Enter all IP addresses in dot-quad notation. Do not use leading zeros in the fields
for dot-quad numbers less than 100. For example, if your IP address is
172.19.201.28
, do not enter
028
for the last segment octet.
Note:
Currently, the SLC 8000 advanced console manager does not support
configurations with the same IP subnet on multiple interfaces (Ethernet or PPP).
Subnet Mask
If specifying an IP address, enter the subnet mask for the network on which the SLC
unit resides. There is no default.
Default Gateway
The IP address of the router for this network. There is no default.
Hostname
The default host name is
slcXXXX
, where
XXXX
is the last 4 characters of the
hardware address of Ethernet Port 1. There is a 64-character limit (contiguous
characters, no spaces).
Note:
The host name becomes the prompt in the command line interface.
Domain
If desired, specify a domain name (for example,
support.lantronix.com
). The
domain name is used for host name resolution within the SLC 8000 advanced
console manager. For example, if
abcd
is specified for the SMTP server, and
mydomain.com
is specified for the domain, if
abcd
cannot be resolved, the SLC unit
attempts to resolve
abcd.mydomain.com
for the SMTP server.
