IP forwarding enables network traffic received on one interface (Eth1, Eth2, or an external/PC Card/USB modem attached to the SLC console manager with an active PPP connection) to be transferred out another interface (any of the above). The default behavior (if IP forwarding is disabled) is for network traffic to be received but not routed to another destination. Enabling IP forwarding is required if you enable Network Address Translation (NAT) for any device port modem or PC Card/USB/ISDN modem. IP forwarding allows a user accessing the SLC console manager over a modem to access the network connected to Eth1 or Eth2. SLC™ Console Manager User Guide 51

6: Basic Parameters
SLC™ Console Manager User Guide
51
Gateway
Ethernet Bonding
Use the pull-down menu to select and configure one of the following:
Disabled
Active Backup
802.3
Transmit Load Balancing
Note:
Bonding requires a static IP address.
Default
IP address of the router for this network.
If this has not been set manually, any gateway acquired by DHCP for Eth1 or Eth2
displays.
All network traffic that matches the Eth1 IP address and subnet mask is sent out
Eth1. All network traffic that matches the Eth2 IP address and subnet mask is sent
out Eth 2.
If you set a default gateway, any network traffic that does not match Eth1 or Eth2 is
sent to the default gateway for routing.
DHCP-Acquired
(view only)
Gateway acquired by DHCP for Eth1 or Eth2.
GPRS-Acquired
(view only)
Displays the IP address of the router if it has been automatically assigned by
General Packet Radio Service (GPRS).
Precedence
Indicates whether the gateway acquired by DHCP or the default gateway takes
precedence. The default is DHCP Gateway. If the DHCP Gateway is selected and
both Eth1 and Eth2 are configured for DHCP, the SLC console manager gives
precedence to the Eth1 gateway.
Alternate
An alternate IP address of the router for this network, to be used if an IP address
usually accessible through the default gateway fails to return one or more pings.
IP Address to
Ping
IP address to ping to determine whether to use the alternate gateway.
Ethernet Port to
Ping
Ethernet port to use for the ping.
Delay between
Pings
Number of seconds between pings
Number of Failed
Pings
Number of pings that fail before the Lantronix SLP™ power manager uses the
alternate gateway.
Enable IP
Forwarding
IP forwarding enables network traffic received on one interface (Eth1, Eth2, or an
external/PC Card/USB modem attached to the SLC console manager with an active
PPP connection) to be transferred out another interface (any of the above). The
default behavior (if IP forwarding is disabled) is for network traffic to be received but
not routed to another destination.
Enabling IP forwarding is required if you enable Network Address Translation (NAT)
for any device port modem or PC Card/USB/ISDN modem. IP forwarding allows a
user accessing the SLC console manager over a modem to access the network
connected to Eth1 or Eth2.
