tcpdump: A LINUX program that can be used to monitor network traffic by
inspecting tcp packets. Default = ON.
If not needed, or wanted (out of concern for potential security risks), tcp-
dump can be disabled permanently: Once Remove is selected, tcpdump
will be deleted from the system: the WebUI section will be removed, and
the function cannot be enabled again (even after a software upgrade)
unless a full CLEAN upgrade is performed. Removing tcpdump on this page
will also remove the PTP-specific functionality (see "The PTP TCP Dump
Collection Panel" on page149).
2.8.4 Static Routes
Static routes are manually configured routes used by network data traffic, rather
than solely relying on routes chosen automatically by DHCP (Dynamic Host Con-
figuration Protocol). With statically configured networks, static routes are in fact
the only possible way to route network traffic.
To view, add, edit, or delete a static route:
1. Navigate to the MANAGEMENT > Network Setup screen.
2. The Ports panel displays the available Ethernet ports, and their connection
status.
3. To view all configured Static Routes for all Ethernet Ports, or delete one or
more Static Routes, click the TABLE icon in the top-right corner.
4. To add a new Route, view or delete an existing Route for a specific Eth-
ernet Port, locate the Port listing you want to configure, and click the
TABLE button next to it.
The Static Routes window for the chosen Port will open, displaying its Rout-
ing Table, and an Add Route panel.
In the Add Route panel, populate these fields in order to assign a
Static Route to a Port:
Net Address: This is the address/subnet to route to.
Prefix: This is the subnet mask in prefix form e.g., "24". See also
"Subnet Mask Values" on page390.
Router Address: This is where you will go through to get there.
Click the Add Route button at the bottom of the screen.
Note: To set up a static route, the Ethernet connector
must be physically connected to the network.
