2. Under Eth0, configure Ethernet interface settings by performing the following sub-steps:
a) Select the Activate at boot option.
If you do not select the Activate at boot checkbox, the Eth0 interface resets to its
previous values the next time the system restarts.
b) In the IP Address field, type the IP address you would like to use for this iControl
Application Server.
Typically the IP addresses for all devices on a LAN will begin with the same two data
groups, and the remaining two will be assigned by the system administrator.
c) Type an IP address in the Network mask field that corresponds to your desired network
configuration.
d) In the Default Gateway field, type the desired gateway address.
Ask your system administrator for the IP address of the network gateway that this
Application Server will use. If a gateway is not being used, then leave the Default
Gateway field empty.
3. Click Apply.
4. Proceed to the procedure "Restarting the Application Server" on page 51.
Restarting the Application Server
Once you have specified all the settings your Application Server needs to be able to operate
on your local network, you must restart the system to apply the new configuration.
Notes
• The Application Server is shipped with the Eth0 port turned on, in a default
configuration that permits an initial connection. The default IP address
setting for the Application Server is
10.0.3.6, with subnet mask
255.255.0.0. This sub-procedure describes how to reconfigure Eth0 to
meet your local network requirements.
• You must use Eth0 as your main network interface. The other Ethernet port
(Eth1) is also configurable, but is intended for specialized use, such as
connecting Grass Valley Densité frames and some third-party devices (e.g.
SNMP devices) as long as they are on the same local subnet as Eth1. The Eth1
network interface is disabled by default.
IMPORTANT: Ethernet Port Labels on the R200, R210, R310, and R320 Application
