44 Chapter 3 Configuring the management IP interface
Required information
Before you configure the management interface, collect this information:
•
•
•
NN46110-308 02.01
IP address for the management interface
The management IP address must be accessible from one of the private
physical interfaces on the VPN Router 600. For example, if you plan to assign
IP address 10.2.3.3 with subnet mask 255.255.0.0 to the private physical
interface, the management IP address must reside in the 10.2 network.
Subnet mask
The subnet mask specifies which IP addresses are directly reachable on the
network and which ones must be routed through a gateway. For example, the
IP address 10.2.3.3 with a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0 indicates that all hosts
with addresses 10.2.n.n are directly reachable.
Default gateway (optional)
The default gateway routes packets to destinations for which there is no
specific route in the routing table. You can configure a default gateway when
you assign the management IP address, or you can configure it at a later time.
Note: Write down and save the management IP address. You need it to
configure the VPN Router 600.
