Description
Config Eth1 Select one of the following:
(1) obtain IP Address from DHCP: The unit will acquire the IP address, subnet
mask, hostname, and gateway from the DHCP server. (The DHCP server may or
may not provide the gateway and hostname, depending on its setup.) This is the
default setting.
(2) obtain IP Address from BOOTP: Permits a network node to request
configuration information from a BOOTP "server" node.
(3) static IP Address: Allows you to assign a static IP address manually. The IP
address is generally provided by the system administrator.
IP Address (if
specifying)
An IP address that is unique and valid on your network and in the same subnet as
your PC. There is no default.
If you selected DHCP or BOOTP, this prompt does not display.
Enter all IP addresses in dot-quad notation. Do not use leading zeros in the fields for
dot-quad numbers less than 100. For example, if your IP address is 172.19.201.28,
do not enter 028 for the last segment.
Note: Configurations with the same IP subnet on multiple interfaces (Ethernet or
PPP) are not currently supported.
Subnet Mask The subnet mask specifies the network segment on which the SLC 8000 advanced
console manager resides. There is no default. If you selected DHCP or BOOTP, this
prompt does not display.
Default Gateway IP address of the router for this network. There is no default.
Hostname
The default host name is
slc, where XXXX is the last 4 characters of the hardware
address of Ethernet Port 1. There is a 64-character limit (contiguous characters, no
spaces).
Note: The host name becomes the prompt in the command line interface.
Domain If desired, specify a domain name (for example, support.lantronix.com). The domain
name is used for host name resolution within the SLC unit. For example, if abcd is
specified for the SMTP server, and mydomain.com is specified for the domain, if
abcd cannot be resolved, the SLC 8000 advanced console manager attempts to
resolve abcd.mydomain.com for the SMTP server.
Time Zone If the time zone displayed is incorrect, enter the correct time zone and press Enter. If
the entry is not a valid time zone, the system guides you through selecting a time
zone. A list of valid regions and countries displays. At the prompts, enter the correct
region and country.
