• The default gateway
TCP/IP
configuration
methods
Use one of the following methods to define the TCP/IP settings
needed by the Management Card:
• The APC Management Card Wizard. (See“APC
Management Card Wizard” on page 2.)
• A BOOTP server. (See “BOOTP configuration” on
page 3.)
• A local computer. (See “Local access to the control
console” on page 4.)
• A networked computer. (See “Remote access to the
control console” on page 6.)
Note
If a default gateway is unavailable, use the IP
address of a computer that is located on the
same subnet as the Management Card and
that is usually running. The Management
Card uses the default gateway to test the
network when traffic is very light.
