Subnetting — A Primer
It is not the purpose of this guide to describe TCP/IP protocol in detail. However, some
understanding of TCP/IP subnetting (a subnet is a subset of a network — a set of IP devices
that have portions of their IP addresses in common) is necessary in order to understand
the interaction of the FOX matrix switcher and the mail server gateway. To understand
subnetting at the level required to install and operate the FOX matrix switcher, you must
understand the concepts of a gateway, local and remote devices, IP addresses and octets,
and subnet masks and octets.

Gateways

The FOX matrix switcher can communicate with the email server that the switcher uses
for email notification directly (if they are on the same subnet) or the communication can be
routed via a gateway (a computer that provides a link between different subnets).

Local and Remote Devices

The local and remote devices are defined from the point of view of the function being
described. In this guide, subnetting is an issue when you are using the controlling PC to set
TCP/IP and email values in the matrix switcher (see
page 43 and
email notification, which may include subnetting, the matrix switcher is the local device and
the email server is the remote device.
