IP SERVICES
Item
Description
Server
DHCP Server Disabled, Enabled (Default). The Dynamic Host Configuration Pro-
tocol provides a framework for passing configuration information
E.g.: IP address to Hosts (i.e. PC/RTU) on a TCP/IP network.
Gateway
Gateway address handed out by the DHCP Server to the DHCP Client. The default
value is set to the IP address of the Ethernet interface. If the gateway is set to
0.0.0.0, no gateway address will be handed out by the DHCP Server.
Lease Start Address
Pool of addresses allocated for DHCP purpose. If a unit is configured as DHCP
Server, this field represents the start IP address pool managed by the DHCP
Server. Normally, GeminiG3 radiomodem automatically calculates the Lease
Start Address (equal to Ethernet IP Address plus one).
Lease Duration
The period over which the IP Address allocated to a DHCP client is referred to as
a “lease”. Lease Duration is the amount entered in minutes.
A value of “0” indicates an infinite lease.
Maximum number of leases
Maximum number of DHCP client(s) a unit can serve.
IPSD
I/P Services Delivery – Disabled (Default), Enabled.
Allows or disallows the generation of locally provided IP Services such as online
diagnostics, alarms, etc…
NAT
Network Address Translation - Disabled, Enabled (Default)
NAT technology is a method by which IP addresses are mapped from one ad-
dress space to another. In GeminiG3, it is normally used on the WAN side of an
IP network to hide local IP addresses from an external IP network (i.e. Internet).
See section 4.6.3.5.1 on the next page for a more detailed description
SNMP
Simple Network Management Protocol- Disabled, Enabled (Default)
SNMP provides means to monitor, collect and analyze diagnostic information.
After reset, the GeminiG3 sends a WARMSTART trap to all of the local (those
routed through the Ethernet interface) IP addresses.
Trap IP List
To add an address to the Trap IP List:
Select Add and type the new IP address to be added to the read-only Trap IP List.
The window will expand downward to show all addresses in the list.
To delete an address from the Trap IP List:
Select Delete and type the IP address to be deleted from the read-only Trap IP
List.
Stop Current Trap Report
A trap report will be re-sent repeatedly until the Stop current trap report check
box is selected.
The main purpose of “Stop current trap report” option is to protect the network
from being overloaded by excessive Trap reporting.
MIBS
Management Information Base -used to assemble and interpret SNMP messages.
The CalAmp Paragon4 MIB is bundled with each unit's firmware. Click "Down-
load mibs.zip" and a pop-up dialog box will appear in your browser asking you to
open or save the file to your PC. Save the zip file to a desired location. Unzip the
contents of mibs.zip file to a location where your SNMP manager can find it.
Note: SNMP must be enabled in order for the host PC SNMP manager to work.
