Special case IP addresses
Devices on an Ethernet network are not allowed to be configured to the following IP
addresses; therefore do not configure the module to use any of them.
0.x.x.x - IP address where the first byte is zero
127.x.x.x - IP address where the first byte is
127
x.x.x.0 - IP address where the last byte is zero
x.x.x.255 - IP address where the
last byte is 255
Gateway
The Gateway IP is the IP address of the LAN server or the host device.
Connect Timeout
The Connect Timeout parameter in the IP addressing section of the display refers to the IP
functionality of the module. If an IP connection to the module has not been active for this
amount of time, the 105G will timeout and disconnect that connection. Note that there can be
several active connections at the same time - only the inactive connection will be
disconnected.
Enable Ethernet Debug
Select this box if you wish the Ethernet host device to be able to change the configuration of
the 105G or use diagnostic features via the Ethernet port.
