Figure 8-3. Hostlist Option
To enable the hostlist:
1. Enter a Connect Mode of 0x20 (2X), where X is any digit. The menu shows
you a list of current entries already defined in the product.
2. To delete, modify, or add an entry, select Yes. If you enter an IP address of
0.0.0.0, that entry and all others after it are deleted.
3. After completing the hostlist, repeat the previous step if necessary to edit the
hostlist again.
4. For Retrycounter, enter the number of times the Lantronix unit should try to
make a good network connection to a hostlist entry that it has successfully
ARPed. The range is 1-15, with the default set to 3.
5. For Retrytimeout, enter the number of seconds the unit should wait before
failing an attempted connection. The time is stored as units of milliseconds in
the range of 10-65535. The default setting is 250.
d) Datagram Type
When selecting this option, the prompt requests the Datagram type.
Enter 01 for directed or broadcast UDP. Datagrams of type 01 can be
sent as a broadcast by enabling this option. The default is not to
broadcast.
Note: Datagrams are sent as subnet-directed broadcasts.
When the UDP option is in effect, the unit never attempts to initiate a
TCP connection because it uses UDP datagrams to send and receive
data.
