Default Gateway MAC Address
This edit box allows the MAC address of the default gateway router to be entered. 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 the user 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, the MAC address in the Default Gateway MAC Address field must be
provided.
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 the user is
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.
