If the “DHCP” is not enabled, then other options appear on the form as shown in the following figure.
The fully qualified domain name identifying the specific host computer on the network. A text string designed to appear on the console upon logging into and exiting from a port as a way to verify or identify the particular port connection. The secondary IP address of the ACS unit. By configuring a second IP address, the unit will be available for more than one network. The 32-bit number used to group IP addresses together or to indicate the range of IP addresses for a subnet. Secondary Network Mask Maximum Transmission Unit used by the TCP protocol. Secondary DNS Server The name that identifies the domain, for example, domainname.com. Enables redundancy for the Ethernet devices using the standard Ethernet interface as the primary mode of access and a PCMCIA card as a secondary mode of access.If bonding is enabled, the following values should be set.The interval in which the active interface is checked to see if it is still communicating (in milliseconds).: The time that the system will wait to make the primary interface active after it has been detected as up (in milliseconds).Caution: If you have set IP Filtering rules before bonding is activated, the interface reference in the firewall configuration will be eth0. You need to change the interface to bond0 in order to reference the bonded interface. See the AlterPath ACS Installation, Administration, and User’s Guide, Chapter 3.
2. By default, the DHCP is enabled. To disable DHCP, click the checkbox to remove the check mark.The console banner appears on the console upon logging into and exiting from a port as a way to verify or identify the particular port connection
c. If the ACS has a second Ethernet card in a PCMCIA slot, enter the ACS’s second IP address in the “Secondary IP” field.
d. Specify the network mask of the secondary IP in the “Secondary Network Mask” field.
e. Specify the desired maximum transmission unit in the “Maximum Transmission Unit” field.
a.
b. If there is a backup DNS server, enter the address of the secondary DNS in the “Primary DNS Server” field
a. Enter a positive integer in the “Miimon” field. This value represents the interval in which the active interface is checked to see if it is still communicating, measured in milliseconds.
b. Enter a positive integer in the “Updelay” field. This value represents the time that the system will wait to make the primary interface active after it has been detected as up, measured in milliseconds.
