IP Settings fi elds
The IP Settings fi elds provide a location for viewing and editing settings unique
to the Ethernet interface. After editing any of the settings on this page, click the
Submit button at the bottom of the page.
Unit Name fi eld
The Unit Name fi eld contains the name used as the “from” information when the
switcher BME 0 e-mails notifi cation of its failed or repaired status. This name fi eld
can be changed to any valid name, up to 24 alphanumeric characters.
N The following characters are invalid in the matrix name:
+ ~ , @ = ‘ [ ] { } < > ’ “ ; : | \ and ?.
DHCP radio buttons
The DHCP On radio button directs the switcher BME 0 to ignore any entered IP
addresses and to obtain its IP address from a Dynamic Host Confi guration Protocol
(DHCP) server (if the network is DHCP capable). The DHCP Off radio button
turns DHCP off. Contact the local system administrator for guidance on the use of
DHCP.
IP Address fi eld
The IP Address fi eld contains the IP address of the connected switcher BME. This
value is encoded in the switcher BME’s fl ash memory.
Valid IP addresses consist of four 1-, 2-, or 3-digit numeric subfi elds separated by
dots (periods). Each fi eld can be numbered from 000 through 255. Leading zeroes,
up to 3 digits total per fi eld, are optional. Values of 256 and above are invalid.
The factory-installed default address is 192.168.254.254, but if this confl icts with
other equipment at your installation, you can change the IP address to any valid
value.
N IP address changes can cause confl icts with other equipment. Only local system
administrators should change IP addresses.
Gateway IP Address fi eld
The Gateway IP Address fi eld identifi es the address of the gateway to the mail
server to be used if the switcher BME 0 and the mail server are not on the same
subnet.
The gateway IP address has the same validity rules as the system IP address.
Subnet Mask fi eld
The Subnet Mask fi eld is used to determine whether the switcher BME 0 is on the
same subnet as the mail server when you are subnetting. For more information, see
Subnetting — A Primer, in Appendix A, Ethernet Connection.
MAC Address fi eld
The Media Access Control (MAC) Address is hardcoded in the switcher BME and
cannot be changed.
