Setting the IP Address
The IP address is the address used by the SNMP
manager to access the device. For devices using PPP, the
IP address can be negotiated if the network device (e.g.,
router or SNMP manager) supports such negotiation. The
IP address is composed of four fields with three digits per
field (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx).
The IP address is set for the COM port or the AUX
port (with LAN Adapter or daisy chain), depending on
which one has been chosen as the SNMP communications
link. The example below assumes that an IP address of
010.155.111.222 is being set for the COM port. You can
use the same principles to assign any value (between 000
and 255 for each digit field) to either port.
To assign an IP address to the COM port,
1. Press F3 to select Cnfig from the top-level menu
screen.
2. Select the configuration option set to be copied
into the Edit area by using the appropriate
Function key. Use the scroll keys, if necessary.
3. Press F1 to select Edit.
4. Press the
key from the Edit screen to display
the SNMP selection.

keys to position the cursor
under the digit you want to change. Press F1 (Up)
to increment the digit or F2 (Down) to decrement
the digit. In this example, you would press
once to place the cursor under the middle digit in
the first digit field, then press F1 (Up) once to
change the 0 to a 1. Continue in this manner to
change the other digits.
