8. In the Gateway address field, type your network gateway router. The gateway address must contain four integers from 0 - 255 with no spaces or consecutive periods and separated by periods. 9. Scroll to the bottom of the page and click Save. 10. Click Advanced Ethernet Setup if you need to set additional Ethernet settings. The following table describes the functions on the Advanced Ethernet Setup page. Table 4. Functions on the Advanced Ethernet Setup page Field Auto Negotiate Data rate Duplex Function The IMM determines the data rate and duplex settings automatically, according to your switch capabilities. Use the Data Rate field to specify the amount of data that is to be transferred per second over your LAN connection. To set the data rate, click the menu and select the data-transfer rate, in Mb1, that corresponds to the capability of your network. To automatically detect the data-transfer rate, set the Auto Negotiate field to Yes, which is the default value. Use the Duplex field to specify the type of communication channel that is used in your network. To set the duplex mode, select one of the following choices: v Full enables data to be carried in both directions at once. v Half enables data to be carried in either one direction or the other, but not both at the same time. To automatically detect the duplex type, set the Auto Negotiate field to Yes, which is the default value. Maximum transmission unit Use the Maximum transmission unit field to specify the maximum size of a packet (in bytes) for your network interface. For Ethernet, the valid maximum transmission unit (MTU) range is 60 - 1500. The default value for this field is 1500. Locally administered MAC address Enter a physical address for the IMM in the Locally administered MAC address field. If a value is specified, the locally administered address overrides the burned-in MAC address. The locally administered address must be a hexadecimal value from 000000000000 through FFFFFFFFFFFF. This value must be in the form xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx where x is a number 0 9. The IMM does not support the use of a multicast address. The first byte of a multicast address is an odd number (the least significant bit is set to 1). Therefore, the first byte must be an even number. Burned-in MAC The burned-in MAC address is a unique physical address that is address assigned to this IMM by the manufacturer. The address is a read-only field. 1Mb equals approximately 1 000 000 bits. 11. Modify the advanced Ethernet settings as necessary. 12. Scroll to the bottom of the page and click Save. 13. Click Cancel to return to the Network Interfaces page. If DHCP is enabled, the server automatically assigns the host name, IP address, gateway address, subnet mask, domain name, DHCP server IP address, and up to three DNS server IP addresses. 14. If DHCP is enabled, to view the DHCP server assigned setting, click IP Configuration Assigned by DHCP Server. 30 Integrated Management Module: User Guide

Auto Negotiate
The IMM determines the data rate and duplex settings automatically,
according to your switch capabilities.
Data rate
Use the
Data Rate
field to specify the amount of data that is to be
transferred per second over your LAN connection. To set the data rate,
click the menu and select the data-transfer rate, in Mb
1
, that corresponds
to the capability of your network. To automatically detect the
data-transfer rate, set the
Auto Negotiate
field to
Yes
, which is the
default value.
Duplex
Use the
Duplex
field to specify the type of communication channel that
is used in your network.
To set the duplex mode, select one of the following choices:
v
Full
enables data to be carried in both directions at once.
v
Half
enables data to be carried in either one direction or the other, but
not both at the same time.
To automatically detect the duplex type, set the
Auto Negotiate

Maximum
transmission
unit
Use the
Maximum transmission unit

of a packet (in bytes) for your network interface. For Ethernet, the valid
maximum transmission unit (MTU) range is 60 - 1500. The default value
for this field is 1500.
Locally
administered
MAC address
Enter a physical address for the IMM in the
Locally administered MAC
address
field. If a value is specified, the locally administered address
overrides the burned-in MAC address. The locally administered address
must be a hexadecimal value from 000000000000 through FFFFFFFFFFFF.
This value must be in the form
