Cabletron Systems SEHI100TX- Manuel D’Utilisation

Chapter 7: Local Management

Use the following steps to set the IP address:

1. Use the arrow keys to highlight the IP Address field.

2. Enter the IP address into this field. The format for this entry is 

XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX, with values for XXX being from 0 to 255. 
The screen beeps if non-numerics or adjacent dots are entered. If the 
entry does not have three dots it will be rejected.

3. Press ENTER. The IP address appears and the natural subnet mask for 

the user is generated and also appears.

4. Use the arrow keys to highlight the SAVE option, then press ENTER 

or F6. The “SAVED OK” message appears indicating that the changes 
have been saved to memory.

The subnet mask defines how the SEHI treats SNMP Trap IP destination 
addresses in its Trap Table.

•

Set the subnet mask when workstations in the Trap Table reside on a 
different subnet (i.e., across a gateway or router), and these 
workstations are to receive SNMP traps.

•

Use the subnet mask factory default setting of 0.0.0.0 when all trap 
designated workstations are on the SEHI subnet.

Use the following steps to set the subnet mask:

1. Use the arrow keys to highlight the SubNET Mask field.

The first time an attempt is made to exit the screen without 
saving the changes, a “NOT SAVED?” message is displayed. 
The edits are lost if the user proceeds to exit without saving the 
changes.

Consult the Network Administrator prior to setting the Subnet 
Mask.
