Task 2: Configuring IP and Ethernet interfaces
Attribute Meaning
IP Address Assign an IP address for SM management through Ethernet
access to the SM. This address becomes the base for the
range of DHCP-assigned addresses.
Subnet Mask Assign a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 or a more restrictive
subnet mask. Set only the last byte of this subnet mask. Each
of the first three bytes is permanently set to 255.
DMZ Enable Either enable or disable DMZ for this SM.
DMZ IP Address If you enable DMZ in the parameter above, set the last byte
of the DMZ host IP address to use for this SM when DMZ is
enabled. Only one such address is allowed. The first three
bytes are identical to those of the NAT private IP address.
Ensure that the device that receives network traffic behind
this SM is assigned this address. The system provides a
warning if you enter an address within the range that DHCP
can assign.
DHCP Server This is the server (in the SM) that provides an IP address to
the device connected to the Ethernet port of the SM.
DHCP Server
Enable/Disable
Select either
Enabled
or
Disabled
.
Enable to:
Allow this SM to assign IP addresses, subnet masks, and
gateway IP addresses to attached devices.
Assign a start address for DHCP.
Designate how many IP addresses may be temporarily
used (leased).
Disable to:
Restrict SM from assigning addresses to attached
devices.
DHCP Server Lease
Timeout
Based on network performance, enter the number of days
between when the DHCP server assigns an IP address and
when that address expires. The range of values for this
parameter is 1 to 30 days. The default value is 30 days.
DHCP Start IP If you enable DHCP Server below, set the last byte of the
starting IP address that the DHCP server assigns. The first
three bytes are identical to those of the NAT private IP
address.
Number of IPs to
Lease
Enter how many IP addresses the DHCP server is allowed to
assign. The default value is 50 addresses.
