Application Guidelines
Establishing an IP Address
IP addresses and subnet masks are established by the user locally at the terminal interface. IP
addresses are stored in SC-IP nonvolatile memory and retained when there is no power to the card.
In setting up the SC-IP, individual IP addresses are required for the T1/DDS interface, the modem
interface, and the Ethernet (LAN) interface. Each IP address is associated with a subnet mask which
further subdivides a standard class address for routing within an organization. A station submask
indicates the bits used for network identification. A sending station checks the bits to see if the
receiving station is on its LAN or a remote. For a remote, the sending station selects a default router
from an internal table.
From the factory, the SC-IP's modem interface is pre-configured with a default address of
192.168.11.220 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.000 for initial remote dial-in. For the other
interfaces, the factory default is no IP addresses or masks.
