Figure 51: NetCom Manager Server Settings - Info
The
Server Name
is just for information. As factory setting it includes the serial number of the
device. You may change it to any string (of ASCII characters), since there is no functionality related
to the name. This name is listed in the Server panel of NetCom Manager. The next parameters
are fixed, and displayed for information only.
The
Telnet port
allows to configure this NetCom
+
via Telnet. The value is a TCP port number.
Factory setting is 23, the standard port for Telnet protocol. By default the NetCom
+
is set to
Use DHCP
for automatic configuration of IP parameters. This is the suggested method. However
there are several situations where this option can not be used. In this case deactivate it. When
inactive, other parameters may be changed. The basic parameters
IP address
and
Netmask
are
mandatory. Instead of an IP Address you may enter a
DNS
name. The NetCom Manager will resolve
that name to the actual IP Address.
