Caution! All devices connected to the private Ethernet ports of the OnBoard
must have a previously-configured private subnet name assigned. The Caution
at the top of the dialog shown in Figure 7-3 is a reminder that if the default
route is assigned instead of a private subnet, the device can only be accessed if
it is connected to the public interface of the OnBoard, a highly unlikely

Table 1-24, “Device Configuration Parameters,” on page 50 lists the
