Max Telnet Sessions

Write security: 3; Read security: 5

Defines the maximum number of Telnet sessions that can be active at the same time. Enter a number

between 0 and 12 in this field.

Ethernet Port

Write security: 2; Read security: 5

Provides a way to configure various settings for the Ethernet port. The following options are available for

review and editing:

Port Name Defines the name of the Ethernet port. You can leave this field blank.

IP Address Lists the address assigned to the base Ethernet port. This address is in dotted

decimal notation (four decimal numbers, each in the range of 0 to 255, separated

by periods). Default value is 10.0.0.1. The IP address is used for the

10/100BaseT Ethernet interface. Obtain the correct IP address from your LAN

administrator.

Default Gateway Defines or changes the default gateway. Enter the default gateway address by

entering a decimal number into the appropriate field and then pressing <Enter>

to move to the next field. You will need a default gateway if the LAN contains

multiple segments. This address is in dotted decimal notation (four decimal

numbers, each in the range of 0 to 255, separated by periods). This value is set

to 0.0.0.0 by default. Contact your LAN administrator for the appropriate

address.

Subnet Mask Defines which part of a destination IP address contains the network number.

This address is in dotted decimal notation (four decimal numbers, each in the

range of 0 to 255, separated by periods). Default value is 255.255.255.0 by

default. This part of the destination IP address is used along with the

ATLAS 800 Series IP address to determine which nodes must be reached

through the default IP gateway.

MAC Address Read-only field displays the system Ethernet Media Access Control (MAC)

address.

Ethernet Speed Defines the rate at which the Ethernet port operates. Choose from 10 MBPS or

AUTO 10/100. When the unit is set for Auto 10/100, the ATLAS 800 Series auto

detects the data rate of the LAN and sets itself to that rate, either 10 or

100 Mbps.

If you enter zero in MAX TELNET SESSIONS, you will not be able to use Telnet. Only enter

zero if you want to completely lock out Telnet access.
