General
The options on this page (except for Splash Screen parameters) are not supported. A splash
screen showing the VBrick logo is briefly displayed when you power-on the system or reboot.
The
Splash Screen parameter lets you replace the standard VBrick page with a customized
page. Note that a custom splash screen must be in the .xpm graphics format used in Unix and
cannot exceed 100 KB. Be sure to check the file size. ImageMagick is freeware available on
the web that can be used to convert a .jpg file to an .xpm. You can download the Windows
binary version of this application from http://sourceforge.net/project/
showfiles.php?group_id=24099. After download, open a Command Prompt window and
type:
convert mySplash.jpg mySplash.xpm
You can also use the
size
parameter to change the resolution of the .xpm file. For example:
convert -size 160x120 mySplash.jpg mySplash.xpm
Time to Live Determines the number of hops that a SAP will travel before being

Type of Service The value of the TOS bits in the IP header of the management SAP

within a network.
IP Address Determines the unicast or multicast IP address that the SAP will be
sent to.
Port Determines the IP port that the SAP will be sent to.
Show Version Choose whether the splash screen should show the version number.
