B.2 Primary .nv file parameters

This section describes parameters that are used in the primary .nv file. These parameters are categorized according to the products that they support. These products are:

•TCP/IP

•DNS Client

•DHCP Server

•PPP

•Modem

•SNMP

•Webserver.

The parameter names are self-explanatory to experienced TCP/IP programmers.

B.2.1 TCP/IP

For TCP/IP, the following parameters are needed for each of the interfaces:

Net interface: 0 IP address: 10.0.0.1 subnet mask: 255.0.0.0 gateway: 0.0.0.0

DHCP Client: NO

Note

The Net interface: parameter specifies the interface to which the following parameters apply. If the IP address has to be dynamically assigned via a DHCP Server, the DHCP Client must have the value YES.

B.2.2 DNS Client

To use the DNS Client, you initialize the following fields. Each parameter contains the IP address of a DNS Server.

DNS server: 1 - 204.156.128.1

DNS server: 2 - 204.156.128.10

DNS server: 3 - 204.156.128.20

The maximum number of DNS servers is defined by MAXDNSSERVERS in dns.h.

B.2.3 B.2.3 DHCP Server

To use the DHCP Server, you set the following parameter:

Be local DHCP server: YES

This activates the DHCP Server. DHCP Server then picks the rest of the initialization values from the file dhcpsrv.nv as described in Secondary .nv file parameters on page B-6.

The DHCP Server also needs the file dhcprecs.nv for data storage, as described in

Secondary .nv file parameters on page B-6.

B.2.4 B.2.4 PPP

To use PPP, you set the following parameters:

PPP Console Logging: YES

PPP File Logging: NO

PPP keepalive: 0

PPP client timeout: 60

If VJ Compression is enabled in the source code, set:

PPP VJ request: YES

If CHAP is enabled in the source code, set:

CHAP secret: secret_words require CHAP: NO

If PAP is enabled in the source code, set:

require PAP: NO

B.2.5 Modem

To use the modem code, set the following values:

Phone Number: your_isp User Name: your_name

Password: your_password

Modem Init: AT&D2&C1 Idle line timeout: 600 login file: login.nv

log server file: server.nv
