Option Settings

TCP/IP

Use this option to enable or disable BOOTP, and when BOOTP is disabled,
to define the three TCP/IP settings that the Switched Rack PDU needs to
operate on the network.

• System IP address for the Switched Rack PDU
• Subnet mask value
• IP address of the default gateway

When BOOTP is enabled (the default setting), you can affect only the
BOOTP setting. A BOOTP server will provide the Switched Rack PDU with
its TCP/IP settings whenever the PDU is started, reset, or restarted.

For information about the watchdog role of the default
gateway, see

Resetting the network timer
