Setting TCP/IP, Gateway, and DNS Addresses
Assigning the UX Mail TCPIP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway Address
The UX Mail Administrator program uses TCP/IP protocol to communicate with the voice mail application
over the LAN.
For UX Mail to communicate over the LAN, you must set the IP address and subnet mask
before using the UX Mail Administrator.
Check with your IT Manager before entering data for this option.
The UX Mail IP Address
The IP Address is the TCP/IP identity of the UX Mail on your LAN.
The UX Mail Subnet Mask
The subnet mask distinguishes addresses of computers on your LAN from those outside your network (e.g.,
on the internet or a private WAN).
●
For example, in the default TCP/IP address (192.168.1.250) with a 24-bit subnet mask, 192.168.1 is the
“masked” part of the address and describes the IP address of your network. The UX Mail address is 250.
●
If UX Mail Administrator sends a message to a computer with an IP address that is on your network (i.e.,
its address begins with 192.168.1), it communicates directly with it (peer to peer).
●
If UX Mail Administrator sends a message to a computer with an IP address that is not on your net-
work (i.e., its address does not begin with 192.168.1), it forwards its response to your router’s Gate-
way address.
●
If there is no router at the installation site, leave the UX Mail IP address at its default value
(192.168.1.250) and set the IP address of your PC to 192.168.1.1.
The UX Mail Gateway Address
The gateway address is the address in the site router to which all outbound traffic is routed. The gateway
address is required in order for the UX Mail Administrator program to communicate with computers not on
your LAN (i.e., over the internet or a private WAN). Check with your IT Manager before entering data for
this option.
●
To use the UX Mail Administrator over the LAN you must set the gateway address, even if you don’t
want to remotely program UX Mail
.
●
If there is no router at the installation site and you must connect directly, use the TCP/IP address you
assigned to the UX Mail.
