Screen 3-11. Default Gateway

A default gateway allows the Multi-Function Board to communicate with other
hosts in other LANs. The Default Gateway screen is used to 1) initially identify
the default gateway to the Multi-Function Board; 2) change the Name or IP
Address and check the Status; or 3) verify that the Multi-Function board is not
communicating with another host because the Status of the Default Gateway is
‘‘down.’’

This screen is protected against multiple users making simultaneous changes as
follows: If a user presses the

ENTER

function key, the system checks to see if

the information that was displayed upon entry to this screen has changed. If it
has, the data is not entered and the user is apprised of the problem and exited
from the screen. The previous screen (TCP/IP Administration) reappears.
