CHAPTER 5: LOCAL MANAGEMENT
Channel - Shows the channel, or bus, through which packets with that IP
address are passing. Channel A is the original Ethernet bus channel.
Channels B & C are the Flexible Network Bus channels. Channel D is the
external Ethernet network accessed through an AUI port. Refer to Chapter
1 for a more complete description about channels.
IP Address - Displays the IP address of each of the four EMME
interfaces.
Subnet Mask - Displays the subnet mask for each of the four EMME
channels. A subnet mask "masks out" the network bits of the IP address
by setting the bits in the mask to 1 when the network treats the
corresponding bits in the IP address as part of the network or subnetwork
address, or to 0 if the corresponding bit identifies the host.
MAC Address - Displays the physical address of each bridge interface.
Default Interface - Displays the default interface for the EMME's default
gateway. The default interface is the channel that is set up to handle
message traffic to external networks. This field defaults to four.
Default Gateway - Displays the default gateway for the EMME. This
should be the IP address of a perimeter or border device that connects
your network to the rest of the world. The border device can be any device
that is suitable for interfacing with external message traffic. This field is
not defined until an appropriate value is entered.
Console Application - Displays the Console port's application setting as
UNASSIGNED, SLIP, UPS, or LM.
Modem Application - Displays the Modem port's application setting as
UNASSIGNED, SLIP, UPS, or LM.
Baud Rate - (This field only appears when the Console Application or the
Modem Application is set to SLIP) - Displays the Baud Rate setting of the
device attached to the EMME through the CONSOLE or MODEM port.
The settings for this field are 19200, 9600, 4800, 2400, 1200, 600, and
300. The default setting is 9600.
