Wireless LAN Array
70 Configuring the XS-3900
e. MTU Size: Specify the MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) size.
When you specify the MTU, you are defining—in bytes—the largest
physical packet size that the network can transmit. Any messages
larger than the MTU that you specify here are divided into smaller
packets before being sent. The default is 1000 bytes.
f. Encapsulation: Choose either dot1H (802.1H) or snap (SNAP) as the
Ethernet encapsulation type.
g. Configuration Server Protocol: Choose DHCP to instruct the XS-
3900 to use DHCP when assigning IP addresses to the array, or
choose Static IP if you intend to enter IP addresses manually.
z IP Address: If you selected the Static IP option, enter a valid
IP address for this XS-3900 unit. To use any of the remote
connections (Web, SNMP, or SSH), a valid IP address must
be established.
z IP Subnet Mask: If you selected the Static IP option, enter a
valid IP address for the subnet mask (the default for Class C
is 255.255.255.0). The subnet mask defines the number of IP
addresses that are available on the routed subnet where the
XS-3900 is located.
z Default Gateway: If you selected the Static IP option, enter a
valid IP address for the default gateway. This is the IP
address of the router that the XS-3900 uses to transmit data to
other networks.
