IP Address
Displays the IP address of the SEHI.
SubNET Mask
Displays the subnet mask for the SEHI. A subnet mask is a 32-bit quantity
which “masks out” the network bits of the IP address. This is done by
setting the bits in the mask to 1 when the network treats the corresponding
bits in the IP address as part of the network or subnetwork address, or to 0
if the corresponding bit identifies the host.
MAC Address
Displays the physical address associated with the interface.
Default Gateway
Displays the default gateway for the SEHI. This field is not defined until
an appropriate value is entered. The default gateway identifies the default
gateway device that will forward packets to other IP subnetworks.
Serial Port 1 Application
Displays the port’s application setting as CONSOLE.
Baud Rate
Displays the Baud Rate setting of the device attached to the SEHI through
the serial port. The setting for the serial port is 9600.
Port Enable Override
This command lets the user override the Disable Port settings in the
Device Statistics screen to enable all ports in the stack.
7.6.1 Setting the IP Address
Use the following steps to set the IP address:
1. Use the arrow keys to highlight the IP Address field.
2. Enter the IP address into this field. The format for this entry is
XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX, with values for XXX being from 0 to 255.
The screen beeps if non-numerics or adjacent dots are entered. If the
entry does not have three dots it will be rejected.
3. Press ENTER. The IP address appears and the natural subnet mask for
the user is generated and also appears.
