Ethernet Settings

IP Address

The IP address of the Ethernet interface.

IP Netmask

Defaults to 255.255.255.0. If you have divided your network into subnets, enter the subnet mask that identifies how your network addresses are divided between the network portion and the host portion.

Broadcast

Version of the Ethernet IP address plus netmask that the INA module uses as a broadcast address to send information to other hosts on the local Ethernet:

High Sets the host part of the address to all ones (for example, 192.168.1.255) for broadcast.

Low Sets the host part of the address to all zeros (for example, 192.168.1.0) for broadcast. This is the default.

This broadcast address must match the broadcast address set for the other hosts on your local Ethernet segment.

IP Status

If enabled (the default), IP traffic is allowed on the interface. Disabling IP on the Ethernet interface might disable communications between PMVision and the INA module being monitored. Disable IP traffic on this interface only if the INA module is not attached to a local Ethernet network.

Input Filter

Name of filter, up to 15 characters, for packets entering the INA module. All traffic coming into the INA module on the Ethernet interface is compared to the input filter rules. Only packets permitted by the filter rules are accepted by the INA module. (Click Configure==>Filters to create an input filter.)

Output Filter

Name of filter, up to 15 characters, for packets exiting the INA module. All traffic going out of the INA module on the Ethernet interface is compared to the output filter rules. Only packets permitted by the filter rules are sent by the INA module. (Click Configure==>Filters to create an output filter.)

MAC Address

Physical or local media access control (MAC) address of the target host.
