USER’S GUIDE

136 CyberSWITCH

SUBNET MASK

The Subnet Mask value (the number of significant bits for the subnet mask) associated with the IP

address specified for this interface. The Subnet mask is specified by entering the number of

contiguous bits that are set for the mask. The mask bits start at the most significant bit of the IP

address field and proceed to the least significant bit. Subnet Mask applies to LAN, WAN, and WAN

RLAN type interfaces only. WAN Direct Host network interfaces use the subnet mask from the

associated LAN network interface.

ORT

If the interface type is LAN, then this indicates the port number on the Ethernet-2 resource to which

the physical LAN for this interface is connected. The LAN port can support multiple network

interfaces.

If the interface type is WAN Direct Host, then this indicates the port number on the Ethernet-2

resource of which this interface is a logical extension.

NCAPSULATION

If the interface is LAN or WAN RLAN, this specifies the encapsulation type for IP datagrams

transferred on this interface. Ethernet type encapsulation specifies that IP datagrams are

transferred in standard Ethernet frames as specified in RFC-894. SNAP type encapsulation specifies

that IP datagrams are transferred in 802.3 format frames using the Sub Network Access Protocol

(SNAP) as specified in RFC-1042.

For multiple LAN network interfaces, you may specify different encapsulations for each.

MTU

This specifies the maximum number of bytes that can be transmitted on the network interface.

Some devices on the network may not be able to receive large data packets. This parameter allows

you to maintain compatibility with these devices by setting the MTU to agree with that supported

by the device. This parameter is a decimal value from 60 to 1500, depending on the type of

datagram encapsulation selected.

For multiple LAN network interfaces, you may specify different MTU sizes for each.

ROXY ARP

You may enable or disable proxy ARP for a LAN or RLAN interface. Proxy ARP helps hosts, with

no routing knowledge, communicate with hosts on other IP subnets. It works as follows: when a

CyberSWITCH receives an ARP request for a host that is not on the same IP subnet as the requester,

the CyberSWITCH checks to see if it provides the best route to the remote host. If it does, the

CyberSWITCH will reply to this ARP request with its own MAC address. The host that has sent the

ARP request then communicates with the remote host by sending packets to the CyberSWITCH.

The CyberSWITCH will forward those packets using standard IP routing.

For multiple LAN network interfaces, the setting on the primary network interface also applies to

all secondary network interfaces configured for the physical LAN port. You cannot change the

proxy ARP setting on secondary network interfaces.

RANSMIT BROADCAST ADDRESS

Specifies the transmit broadcast address on numbered interfaces (meaning all interfaces except

interfaces that have been defined as unnumbered). This information is used by all network

applications (protocols) that use broadcasting capabilities. There are five selections available for the

transmit broadcast address. The first four selections are produced from the IP address that is

1 2 ... 131 132 133 134 135 136 137 138 139 140 141 ... 728 729
