69MAXDATA PLATINUM 90002R Server System
Destination IP Address
This edit box allows you to enter the IP address to which an alert is to be sent. The IP address is
entered as a dotted notation, such as 192.168.0.2. The SMU does not check whether an IP address
matches a previously entered address.
Destination MAC Address
This edit box is used to enter the MAC address of the destination machine to which the alert should
be sent. This box is used when the destination IP address is outside the subnet that the server is
on. The MAC address should be entered as a series of six pairs of hex digits separated by dashes,
such as 00-01-62-d0-3e-66. Alphabetic hex digits (a-f) can be entered in uppercase or lowercase. This
edit box is disabled by default and is only activated if the check box is not checked for Automatically
resolve destination MAC address.
Automatically Resolve Destination MAC Address
This check box allows you to specify whether the BMC should automatically attempt to resolve the
MAC address of the destination system. This box is checked by default unless the MAC address edit
box appears to include a valid MAC address.
If this box is not checked, you must provide the MAC address in the Destination MAC Address
eld.
When the OK button is clicked, the rmware attempts to resolve the destination MAC address. If
the BMC cannot resolve the address, the screen is redisplayed with the box unchecked and you are
asked to provide the MAC address in the Destination Gateway MAC Address eld. If the screen is
redisplayed due to a MAC address resolution issue, any user data previously entered, other than the
MAC address information, remains in place.
Number of Retries
This edit box allows you to enter the number of times to retry sending an alert to a given destination.
If alert acknowledge is enabled, then retries are sent only when if a timeout occurs while waiting for
the acknowledgement. If alert acknowledge is disabled, the number of retries is equal to the number
of times an unacknowledged alert is sent out.
If the number of retries is set to 0, only a single attempt is made to send the alert. When a number
greater than 0 is entered, the alert will be retried only if a timeout occurs while waiting for the
acknowledgement.
The number of retries must between 0 and 7.
Retry Interval
This edit box is used to set the retry interval for sending an alert or to set the acknowledge timeout
when Enable Alert Acknowledge is enabled. The value entered into this eld is disregarded if Enable
Alert Acknowledge is disabled.
The retry interval is in seconds, with a recommended value of 3 seconds. The retry value must be
between 1 and 255.
Enable Alert Acknowledge
This check box should be checked if the destination IP address should send an acknowledgement when
an alert is received. If this box is checked, then an alert is only assumed to have been successfully
sent if an acknowledgement is received.
Use Default Gateway
This check box should be checked if the IP address entered as the default gateway IP address for the
LAN channel on the rst LAN conguration screen should be used as the gateway for this destination
IP address. If this box is not checked, the backup gateway IP address is used as the gateway IP
address.
