the link IP network address information shared by the devices managed by the
MiNT configuration.
Advanced Profile Overrides MiNT Screen - IP Tab
- Review the existing MiNT IP settings. The IP tab displays the IP address, Routing Level, Listening Link, Port, Forced Link, Link Cost, Hello Packet Interval, Adjacency Hold Time, IPSec Secure, and IPSec GW information that managed devices use to communicate securely with each other.

Advanced Profile Overrides MiNT Screen - Add IP MiNT Link
-
Set the following Link IP parameters
for the MiNT network address configuration:
IP
Define or override the IP address used by peer access points for interoperation when supporting the MiNT protocol.
Port
To specify a custom port for MiNT links, select this option and use the spinner control to define or override the port number from 1 - 65,535.
Routing Level
Define or override a routing level of either 1 or 2.
Listening Link
Specify a listening link of either 0 or 1. UDP/IP links can be created by configuring a matching pair of links, one on each end point. However, that is error prone and does not scale. So UDP/IP links can also listen (in the TCP sense), and dynamically create connected UDP/IP links when contacted.
Forced Link
Select this option to specify the MiNT link as a forced link. This setting is disabled by default.
Link Cost
Define or override a link cost from 1 - 10,000. The default value is 100.
Hello Packet Interval
Set or override an interval in either seconds (1 - 120) or minutes (1 - 2) for the transmission of hello packets. The default interval is 15 seconds.
Adjacency Hold Time
Set or override a hold time interval in either seconds (2 - 600) or minutes (1 - 10) for the transmission of hello packets. The default interval is 46 seconds.
IPSec Secure
Select this option to use a secure link for IPSec traffic. This setting is disabled by default. When this option is enabled, both the header and the traffic payload are encrypted.
IPSec GW
Define either an IP address or hostname for the IPSec gateway.
