Verifying
Ethernet
Screens
Additional screens within the View Setup and Specify Setup main topics provide
information relevant to the Ethernet model of the IDR V1000. This section describes
the contents of those screens.
NOTE: The following screens do not appear on IDR V1000 models other than the
Ethernet model.
View Setup
The first logical receiver (Receiver 0) refers to the stat mux logical receiver within the
IDR V1000. The second receiver (Receiver 1), applies to the Ethernet logical receiver
and its configured IP addresses.
Figure 4-9. Ethernet Screens, View Setup
Pressing SELECT from the View Setup: IP Addresses screen allows you to view
the loaded IP addresses currently in effect. Use the < and > buttons to move through
those addresses.
All IP addresses are formatted in the same xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx pattern, with each of the
four blocks representing a specific “field” of the address. The “255” number in an IP
address field functions like a “wild card.”
NOTE: Be sure to communicate to the network control center any IP address
changes that are made onsite.
Local IP Address
This is the IDR V1000 address on the end user’s local area network. It identifies the
receiver as a node on the LAN.
Subnet Mask
The subnet mask can be used to prevent the IDR V1000 from establishing point-to-
point connections with individual PCs outside the defined subnetwork.
Gateway IP
Address
The gateway IP address is the end user’s Internet gateway address. If the end user is
not connected to the Internet, this address should be all zeroes.
The IDR V1000 can report its status to the network control center through the
gateway if the receiver has this address loaded.
