Setting The Subnet Mask; Setting The Default Interface - Cabletron Systems EMME User Manual

5.8.5 Setting the Subnet Mask

If the management workstation that will be receiving SNMP traps from
the SNMP agent of the managed device is located on a separate subnet,
the subnet mask for the managed device must be changed from its default.
To change the subnet mask from its default value, perform the following
steps:
1. Use the arrow keys to highlight the appropriate Subnet Mask field.
2. Enter the subnet mask into this field using Decimal Dotted Notation
(DDN) format.
For example: 255.255.0.0
3. Press ENTER. If the subnet mask entered was a valid format, the
cursor returns to the beginning of the Subnet Mask field. If the entry
was not valid, the Event Message Line displays "INVALID SUBNET
MASK OR FORMAT ENTERED." Local Management does not alter
the current value and refreshes the Subnet Mask field with the
previous value.
4. Repeat steps 1 - 3 for each interface's subnet mask.
5. Use the arrow keys to highlight the SAVE command.
6. Press ENTER. The Event Message Line at the top of the screen
displays "SAVED OK.".

5.8.6 Setting the Default Interface

The default interface should be set to reflect the interface channel for the
designated default gateway. To set the Default Interface, perform the
following steps:
1. Use the arrow keys to highlight the Default Interface field.
2. Enter the interface number for the default gateway in this field with a
value from 1 to 4.
