DHCP radio buttons
The
DHCP On
radio button directs the GSS 100 to ignore any entered IP addresses and
to obtain its IP address from a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server (if the
network is DHCP capable). The
DHCP Off
radio button turns DHCP off. Contact the local
system administrator to determine if DHCP is appropriate.
NOTE: The
IP Address
,
Gateway IP Address
, and
Subnet Mask
fields become
uneditable if DHCP is on.
IP Address field
The
IP Address
field contains the IP address of the connected GSS 100. This value is
encoded in the flash memory of the GSS 100.
Standard IP protocol consists of addresses comprised of four 1-, 2-, or 3-digit numeric
subfields, properly called “octets,” separated by dots (periods). Each field can be numbered
from 000 through 255. Leading zeroes, up to three digits total per field, are optional. Values
of 256 and above are invalid.
The factory-installed default address is 192.168.254.254, but if this conflicts with other
equipment at your installation, you can change the IP address to any valid value.
NOTE: IP address changes can cause conflicts with other equipment. Only local system
administrators should change IP addresses.
Gateway IP Address field
The
Gateway IP Address
field identifies the address of the gateway to the mail server to
be used if the GSS 100 and the mail server are not on the same subnet. Standard IP protocol
rules apply to the gateway IP address.
The factory-installed default address is 000.000.000.000, but if this conflicts with other
equipment at your installation, you can change the gateway IP address to any valid value.
Subnet Mask field
The
Subnet Mask
field is used to determine whether the GSS 100 is on the same subnet as
the mail server when you are subnetting.
The factory-installed default address is 255.255.000.000, but if this conflicts with other
equipment at your installation, you can change the subnet mask to any valid value.
MAC Address, Model, and Part Number fields
The Media Access Control (
MAC
)
Address
,
Model
, and
Part Number
are hardcoded in the
GSS 100 and cannot be changed.
Firmware field
The
Firmware
field identifies the installed firmware version. This field is hardcoded in the
GSS 100 and can be changed only by installing a different firmware version (see “
