Fields Neighbor gateway
IP internet
address Enter the IP address of this node’s partner gateway
half. This is the IP address of the partner’s home
network, and is the same IP address that you have
already configured in the Internet Protocol
Configuration screen for the current NI.
There are two methods of entering an internet protocol
(IP) address within NMMGR:
1. Enter the fully qualified IP address (for example,
Class C, C 192.191.191 009)
OR
2. Enter only the network (nnn) and node (xxx)
portions of the IP address as four positive integers
between 0 and 255 separated by periods or blanks
(for example, 15.123.44.98).
You need not enter the following items as NMMGR
will fill these in:
– Class A, B, C
– Leading zeros for the network and node portion of
the IP address.
Addresses are made up of a network portion and a
node portion. The supported classes of network
addresses have the following forms:
Class C: C nnn.nnn.nnn xxx
Class B: B nnn.nnn xxx.xxx
Class A: A nnn xxx.xxx.xxx
where nnn is a value ranging from 000 to 255,
representing eight bits of the network portion of an
address and xxx is a value ranging from 000 to 255,
representing the node portion of an address.
