7. The Default Gateway Address and Subnet Mask parameters
on the Serial Adapter must be set to the appropriate values for
your network. See your Network Administrator for details.

8. It is also possible to do a station search from a wired worksta-
tion to determine the IP Address of any Serial Adapters within
range. The station search is a one byte packet (value of the byte is
2), sent as a UDP broadcast.

Each Serial Adapter that receives the search packet will send the
following response:

1 BYTE:

packet type (= 3)

4 BYTES:

IP address of responding Serial Adapter

The response is sent by the Serial Adapter using a directed UDP
message.
