Default Gateway MAC Address
This edit box allows you to enter the MAC address of the default gateway router. The MAC
address is entered as a series of six pairs of hex digits separated by dashes, such as 00-01-62-d0-3e-
66. Alphabetic hex digits (a-f) can be entered in uppercase or lowercase. This edit box is disabled
by default and is only activated if the check box for Automatically resolve Default Gateway
MAC address is not checked. If the edit box is cleared (no address is supplied), a message is
displayed asking that a valid address be entered. This edit box is disabled if DHCP is enabled.
Automatically Resolve Default Gateway MAC Address
This check box allows you to specify whether the BMC should automatically attempt to resolve the
MAC address of the default gateway router. This box is checked by default unless the MAC
address edit box appears to include a valid MAC address.
If this box is not checked, you must provide the MAC address in the Default Gateway MAC
Address field.
When the OK button is clicked, the firmware attempts to resolve the gateway MAC address. If the
BMC cannot resolve the address, the screen is redisplayed with the box unchecked and you are
asked to provide the MAC address in the Default Gateway MAC Address field. If the screen is
redisplayed due to a MAC address resolution issue, any user data previously entered, other than the
MAC address information, remains in place.
This check box is disabled if DHCP is enabled.
Backup Gateway IP Address
This edit box allows you to enter the IP address of a backup gateway router. The IP address is
entered as a dotted notation, such as 192.168.0.2.
