Verilink SCM

I)Ethernet IP address

Enter the Ethernet IP address of the primary SCM in the node, in the
form: [0.0.0.0]. for example: [192.94.45.242]

Using Telnet with the IP address, you can initiate a Craft interface
session over Ethernet.

NOTE: If, after configuring IP addresses, an error message appears

including the text “sendto: new socket sendto fail:”, there is

an error in the IP addresses used. The Ethernet IP address

and the SLIP IP address must reflect different network

segments as per the subnet mask in use. Correct the error

and reset the SCM module to stop the error messages.

M) Ethernet subnet mask

The Ethernet subnet mask is based on the IP address according to
the standard rules for IP address classes (A,B,C etc.).

L) SLIP IP address

Serial Line Interface Protocol (SLIP) is used to establish a Telnet
Craft interface session, often through a modem. SLIP and Ethernet
addresses must reflect different networks, determined by their
subnet masks.

NOTE: Do not enter a SLIP address unless SLIP will actually be used.

When a SLIP address is entered the selected (front or rear) PRI

connector on the SCM module becomes a SLIP port instead of

a port which supports Verilink Node Manager software. If the

SLIP address is left at 0.0.0.0 the PRI port uses ACP and may

be used with Node Manager.

S) SLIP subnet mask

The SLIP subnet mask is based on the SLIP address according to
standard rules.

G) gateway IP address

The IP address of your network gateway device. This might be a
router which the SCM will use to reach an SNMP manager. A
gateway address is only required if the SCM module will be
communicating with other devices not on the same LAN segment.
Consult with your network administrator.
