Field Definitions

Host Name: This will be the name that the server will used when interrogated by
SNMP. It is also displayed at the top of most panels, and is indicated on the initial
connect panel, prior to logging on to the platform. This name is also used when
generating email alerts (when configured to generate them).

Domain:

This identifies the default domain to be used by the server.


Default Gateway:

This IP address is for the local router, which will interface the

CNA-8000 to the greater network. The CNA-8000 requires for you to fill in this field. If
you elect to keep the CNA-8000 connected to an isolated LAN, you will still need to
provide an unused address on the subnet to which the CNA-8000 will be attached.
Otherwise, enter the value for your local router. Note that the Default Gateway is
associated with the Ethernet 0 interface and should be accessible (compatible) to the
Ethernet 0 IP address.

DNS Server: The function of the DNS server is to allow you to use domain names
instead of IP addresses. You must enter the value for your local DNS server if you are not
to be on an isolated CNA-8000. If you wish for the CNA-8000 to update its code directly
from the Visara FTP site, you will need to configure DNS.

eth0 IP Address:

Enter the IP address that you want to use with Ethernet interface 0.

Changing this value may affect the server IP address that you initially browsed to for
making the initial configuration.

eth0 Netmask:

This is the subnet mask that is to be used by the Ethernet interface

0.

eth1-9 IP Address: Enter the IP address that you want each of the eth1-eth9 interfaces
to use.

eth1-9 Netmask: Enter the subnet mask that you want each of the eth1-9 interfaces to
use.

eth1-9 Gateway: Enter the gateway that you wish to use for the defined interface. If no
Gateway IP address is entered, traffic through this interface will be limited to traffic on
the local subnet. The address entered into this field must be on the same subnet as the
interface to which it is assigned.
