10BASE-T Stackable Hubs
♦
Default Gateway:
IP address that determines where frames with a
destination outside the current subnet should be sent. This is usually
the address of a router or a host acting as an IP gateway. If your
network is not part of an internetwork, or you do not want the hub to
be accessible outside your local network, you can leave this field
blank.
♦
Send BOOTP Request Upon Power Up:
determines whether the
hub should send out a BOOTP broadcast request when it is powered
up. The BOOTP protocol allows IP addresses, network masks, and
default gateways to be assigned on a central BOOTP server; if this
option is set the hub will first look for a BOOTP server to provide it
with this information before using the supplied settings.
