Setting the Reported IP Address
The default number of addresses available for the address pool is equal to the number of
ports configured for network dial-in. The address pool size is determined during the boot
process. You can instead set the number of IP addresses assigned to the pool with the
set pool command.
To limit the size of the IP address pool, use the following command:
Command> set pool Number
Note – If you decrease the number of addresses in the pool, you must reboot the
PortMaster for the change to take effect.
Setting the Reported IP Address
Some sites require a number of different PortMaster devices to appear as a single IP
address to other networks. You can set a reported address different from the Ether0
address. For PPP connections, this address is reported to the outside and placed in the
PPP startup message during PPP negotiation. For SLIP connections, this address is
reported and placed in the SLIP startup message during SLIP startup.
To set a reported IP address, use the following command:
Command> set reported_ip Ipaddress
Configuring SNMP
The simple network management protocol (SNMP) is an application-layer protocol that
allows devices to communicate management information. You can configure the
PortMaster to provide network and device information via SNMP to a network
management system (NMS). You must have NMS software to use SNMP.
SNMP consists of the following parts:
• SNMP agent (provided in ComOS)
• SNMP manager (not provided)
• Management Information Base (MIB)
SNMP specifies the message format for exchanging information between the SNMP
manager and an SNMP agent.
