Settings and Commands
Ethernet Network Operation Settings
3.14
TUNNEL
Use the TUNNEL command to request the SEL-2890 to establish a serial tunnel across
a network. The Tunnel setting needs to be set to Cmd (Commanded mode) for this
command to be accepted. Enter TUN 192.168.0.11:3001 <Enter> to have this
SEL-2890 establish a serial tunnel to an SEL-2890, SEL-2701, or other port server
with IP set at 192.168.0.11 and Telnet port 3001. Issue a
TUN OFF <Enter>
command to terminate the serial tunnel. Note that establishing a Console session does
not impede the passing of serial data through an SEL-2890. An example of dynamic
serial tunneling is provided in
Section 4: Detailed Application Examples .
VERSION
Use the VERSION command to display the current information about the SEL-2890.
Ethernet Network Operation Settings
Several settings control how the SEL-2890 operates on an Ethernet network. These
settings include IP addressing information, network mask, and network gateway.
Network Configuration
Use the network configuration settings shown in Table 3.3 to configure the SEL-2890
for operation on an IP network and to set other parameters affecting the physical
Ethernet network interface operation.
The SEL-2890 uses the IP and SUBNET_MASK settings to determine the local
network and SEL-2890 node address. The SUBNET_MASK setting defines the subnet
mask. The subnet mask divides the local node IP address into two parts, a network
number and a node address on that network. A subnet mask is four bytes of
information and is expressed in the same format as an IP address.
The SEL-2890 uses the GATEWAY address setting to determine how to communicate
with nodes on other local networks. The SEL-2890 communicates with the router to
send data to nodes on other local networks. You should also coordinate the router with
