/24 is the subnet mask reference. 24 represents the number of consecutive 'ones' in the
subnet mask. A typical subnet mask is 255.255.255.0 in binary it looks like:
11111111.11111111.11111111.00000000
If you count the number of consecutive 'ones' they equal 24 in this example.
6.
Enter the IP address of the Default Gateway used on the network the SVMi-20E will be
attached. (10.10.108.5 is the default default Gateway)
Example: 192.168.1.1
7.
Enter the Primary DNS address or press [0] to skip. (10.10.108.5 is the default Primary DNS).
[0] to skip should work just fine.
8.
Enter the Secondary DNS address or press [0] to skip. [0] to skip should work just fine.
9.
Enter [60] for the Interrupt Vector. This is not optional. You must enter a value of 60 for the
Interrupt Vector.
10. Enter [10] for the network card's IRQ. This value is not optional. The LAN controller on the
SVMi-20E is set at IRQ 10.
11. At this point the utility will inform you it is complete and that socket.cfg has been created.
You can now restart the SVMi-20E normally.
After you change your Communications software to use the IP address you just pro-
grammed into the socket.cfg file You should be able to login to the SVMi-20E from any-
where on the customer's local area network or through the internet if they allow you
remote access.
NOTE:
All IP addresses used must be on the same network. If you change the SVMi-20E Static
IP address then you MUST change the Default Gateway address. The DNS addresses can be
skipped.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
When using the LAN connection into the SVMi-20E you can not exit to
DOS or use the DOS shell from Port Activity. The LAN drivers are embedded in the SVMi soft-
ware and will NOT function if you bring the system down to DOS or suspend it's operation.
