Modifying the
Database
If you need to add or modify an entry in the database, use the Address Server
Configuration page (see Configure Address Server Page, p. 287). Three fields must
be filled in:
z Device IP address
z Subnet Mask
z Gateway
Choose either the Role Name or Device MAC address field. When one field is
selected, the other is made unavailable.
Adding Entries If you are adding a device, the page appears with values. You
need to enter either a Role Name or a MAC Address.
If you are adding an entry, submit your selection using the Add the Entry button.
Modifying Entries If you are modifying an entry, the Device IP address, Subnet
Mask, and Gateway fields display with the current configuration.
If you are modifying an entry, submit your selection using the Reset the Form
button.
Each field of the Address Server Node Configuration page has restrictions, which
are detailed below.
z Role Name: Each role name must be unique. Only letters, numerals, and
underscores are allowed. No more than 16 characters are allowed, and no
spaces are allowed.
z Device MAC Address: This address must be in hexadecimal format and six (6)
bytes long (6x2 characters). The MAC address can be entered with or without a
delimiting character between each pair of lower- or upper-case hexadecimal
characters. The delimiting characters improve readability. There are three
choices for a delimiting character:
z Space " " (spacebar)
z Colon ":"
z Hyphen "-"
z Device IP Address: The IP address must use the standard numeric Internet
Protocol address that uniquely identifies each computer on the network. The IP
address is a 32-bit identifier made up of four groups of numbers (from 0 through
255), each number separated by a period, for example 123.456.78.9.
z Subnet Mask: The subnet mask must be entered in IP address format.
z Gateway: The gateway must be entered in IP address format. The gateway must
be on the same subnet as the device.
