Chapter: FX Series Network Settings
Section: In-Path Interface

MN-FXSERIESADM6 Rev 5

This defines the subnet boundaries of this interface.

Gateway:

This is the default gateway for this interface

.

Routes:

Enter into the text area static routes which are used by this in-path interface. Each static route
must be entered on a separate line and must have exactly the following format:

Subnet “SubnetMask” “Gateway”


For example, to define a static route such that subnet 172.88.0.0/16 should be routed by
gateway 172.27.101.99 you would enter either of the following supported formats:

172.88.0.0 255.255.0.0 172.27.101.99

Or

172.88.0.0 /16 172.27.101.99

Router Polling:

If enabled, then SNMP router polling will be used (over the management interface) to ascertain
the routes that should be added to the route table that is associated with this interface. The
default value is disabled. Router polling is only supported for VLAN 0.

Poll address:

This is the IPv4 address of the router which will respond to the SNMP router poll
requests.

SNMP Version:

This is the version of SNMP that will be employed when making the router poll requests.
The default value is 2c.

Poll Community:

This is the SNMP community that is associated with the router poll request. The default
value is “public”.

Poll Interval (seconds):

This is the frequency in seconds that the router tables will be updated based upon the
SNMP router polling response.

In-Band Management:

Normally out-of-band management of the FX is accomplished through the management interface,
however in some scenarios, out-of-band management is not feasible and management of the device must
be performed over an in-path interface. If this is the case, only one in-path interface may be used for in-
band management. The default value is disabled.

Comment: This field provides a means to store useful information about the configuration


NOTE: Changing this setting requires a restart of the acceleration service on the “Status->Real-
time Monitor” page.
