Figure 8-3. Hostlist Option
To enable the hostlist:
1.
Enter a
Connect Mode
of 0x20 (
2
X), where X is any digit. The menu shows
you a list of current entries already defined in the product.
2.
To delete, modify, or add an entry, select
Yes
. If you enter an IP address of
0.0.0.0
, that entry and all others after it are deleted.
3.
After completing the hostlist, repeat the previous step if necessary to edit the
hostlist again.
4.
For
Retrycounter
, enter the number of times the Lantronix unit should try to
make a good network connection to a hostlist entry that it has successfully
ARPed. The range is
1-15
, with the default set to
3
.
5.
For
Retrytimeout
, enter the number of seconds the unit should wait before
failing an attempted connection. The time is stored as units of milliseconds in
the range of
10-65535
. The default setting is
250
.
d) Datagram Type
Directed UDP
When selecting this option, the prompt requests the Datagram type.
Enter
01
for directed or broadcast UDP. Datagrams of type 01 can be
sent as a broadcast by enabling this option. The default is not to
broadcast.
Note:
Datagrams are sent as subnet-directed broadcasts.
When the UDP option is in effect, the unit never attempts to initiate a
TCP connection because it uses UDP datagrams to send and receive
data.
