Setting the Default Gateway

If the SNMP management station is located on a different IP subnet than the SmartSwitch device,
a default gateway must be specified. When an SNMP Trap is generated, the SmartSwitch device
sends out an ARP request to the default gateway, which responds with its MAC address. The
SmartSwitch device then sends the trap using the IP address from the Trap Table and the MAC
address of the default gateway. To set the default gateway, perform the following steps:

1. Use the arrow keys to highlight the Default Gateway field.

2. Enter the IP address of the default gateway using the DDN format.

For example: nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn
