Basic Configuration
5.9.2. Network Parameters
In the Text Interface, these parameters are accessed via the Network Configuration
menu. In the Web Browser Interface, these parameters can be found by clicking the
"Network Parameters" link on the left hand side of the screen to display the Network
Parameters menu.
Note:
The IP Address, Subnet Mask, Gateway Address and DHCP status
cannot be changed via the Web Browser Interface. In order to change these
parameters, you must access the RSM-8R via the Text Interface.
•
IP Address:
(Default = 192.168.168.168.)
•
Subnet Mask:
(Default = 255.255.255.0.)
•
Gateway Address:
(Default = undefined.)
•
DHCP:
Enables/Disables Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. When this option
is "On", the RSM-8R will perform a DHCP request. Note that in the Text Interface,
the MAC address for the RSM-8R is listed on the Network Status Screen.
(Default = Off.)
Note:
Before configuring this feature via Telnet or Web, make certain your
DHCP server is set up to assign a known, fixed IP address. You will need this
new IP address in order to reestablish a network connection with the RSM-8R.
•
Telnet Access:
Enables/disables Telnet access. When Telnet Access is "Off," users
will not be allowed to establish a Telnet connection to the unit. (Default = On.)
•
Telnet Port:
Selects the TCP/IP port number that will be used for Telnet
connections. Note that in the Text Interface, this item is defined via a submenu,
which is displayed when the Telnet Access parameter is selected (item number 21.)
(Default = 23.)
•
Max. Per Source:
The maximum number of Telnet sessions that will be allowed
per user MAC address. (Default = 4.)
Notes:
• In the Text Interface, the "Per Source" parameter is defined via a submenu of
item 21 (Telnet Access) in the Network Parameters menu.
• After changing the "Max Per Source" parameter, you must log out of all pre-
existing Telnet sessions in order for the new maximum value to be applied.
•
SSH Access:
Enables/disables SSH communication. (Default = On.)
•
SSH Port:
Selects the TCP/IP port number that will be used for SSH connections.
Note that in the Text Interface, this item is defined via a submenu, which is
displayed when the SSH Access parameter is selected (item number 22.)
(Default = 22.)
