Subnet Mask
Use this field to enter the subnet mask for the MicroMMAC. Subnets are
logical divisions of the network that isolate groups of devices. The subnet
mask determines how the MicroMMAC directs SNMP traps to a
management workstation. If the MicroMMAC resides on the same
network as the management workstation, then the MicroMMAC sends
SNMP traps directly to the management workstation. If the MicroMMAC
resides on a different subnet as the management workstation, then the
MicroMMAC sends SNMP traps to a gateway or router.
• Use the subnet mask default setting, 255.255.0.0, when the
management workstations designated to receive SNMP traps reside on
the same network as the MicroMMAC.
• Set a new value for the subnet mask when management workstations
designated to receive SNMP traps reside on a different subnet (for
example, across a gateway or router).
Default Gateway
Use this field to enter the default gateway for the MicroMMAC. The
default gateway is the IP address of the network device (gateway or
router) used to forward SNMP traps to a management station. The default
setting for this field is NONE DEFINED.
Phys Address
This field displays the physical address of the MicroMMAC. You cannot
modify the physical address.
Default Interface
Use this field to select the default interface for the MicroMMAC's default
gateway. The default interface is the channel that is set up to handle
SNMP traps sent to an IP station that is not on the same subnet as the
MicroMMAC in an IP routed environment. The default setting for this
field is NONE DEFINED.
