Chapter 3 Configuration
3 — Agent Access Addresses
This parameter stores IP addresses for the P117 agent’s communication interfaces
in stand-alone mode. The interface addresses facilitate communication between the
agent and the management station. By assigning an IP address to the agent
interface, you make that interface available for agent-manager communications.
The agent also stores a Netmask for each communication interface. The Netmask
defines which portion of the IP address represents the network ID and which
portion represents the Host ID (or network node). Bits in the Netmask are set to
one for all bits that correspond to the network portion of the IP address (i.e., 255 in
decimal). Bits in the Netmask are set to zero for all bits that correspond to the Host
ID of the IP address (i.e., 000). For example, if IP address 135.49.60.115 is assigned
a Netmask of 255.255.255.000, it means that “135.49.60” defines the network (in
this case, a subnet), and “115” defines the actual node (host) on that network.
To assign an IP address and/or Netmask:
1. Select
Agent Access Addresses from the Setup Main Menu. This opens the
sub-menu shown below.
