Configuration

Default IP Address

The network management card comes with a default IP address. This address is derived from the MAC address on the label on the front of the card. The format of the MAC address is 00 E0 D8 LL MM NN that is:

• 00 E0 D8 is the manufacturer code in hexadecimal format

• LL MM NN is the serial number of the card in hexadecimal format

The default IP address of the card is made up of four bytes. The last two are derived from the MAC address.

The format of the IP address is 172-17.xxx.yyy that is:

• xxx is the decimal value of the MM byte

• yyy is the decimal value of the NN byte

For example for a MAC address 00 E0 D8 04 0A 15 the corresponding default IP address is 172.17.10.21.

Setting the Network Parameters

The network management card requires the following network parameters:

• The IP address used for identification on the network

• The subnet mask that defines the group of users that are connected

• The address of the gateway that it connects to communicate with another subnet

The network parameters are set up each time the system is started.

• Automatically if the network is equipped with a BOOTP or DHCP server

• With the fixed parameters that are set manually if an IP address server is not available

If the BOOTP/DHCP server is not ready, the saved parameters are used.

Table 7

Network Configuration	Mode Selection	Function
BOOTP/DHCP server installed	BOOTP/DHCP enabled	Reception and use of the network parameters sent by the server (10s maximum)
	BOOTP/DHCP disabled	Use of manual settings
No server available	BOOTP/DHCP enabled	Attempt to connect to a BOOTP/DHCP server for ten seconds, then use settings saved during previous connection or default IP address
	BOOTP/DHCP disabled	Use of manual settings

Table 7 represents the initialization mode for the network parameters.

Note: As long as the card is not connected to the network, it continuously attempts to make connection. Once the connection has been established, the operational mode presented in Table 7 becomes effective.
