Local Network Editor
The
Local Network Editor
contains the following tabs: IP Settings, Interfaces, Access Control, and DHCP Server.
IP Settings:
Name:
This primarily helps to identify this network during
other administration tasks.
Hostname:
[Default: cp (for CradlePoint)] The hostname
is the DNS name associated with the router's local area
network IP address.
NOTE: You can access the router’s administration pages by typing
the hostname into your browser, so i
f you change “cp” to another
hostname, you can access the administration pages through the new
hostname.
IP Address:
This is the address used by the router for
local area network communication. Changes to this
parameter may require a restart to computers on this
network.
Each network must have a distinct IP address. Most users
will want an address from one of the following private IP ranges:
10.0.0.1 - 10.255.255.1
172.16.0.1 - 172.31.255.1
192.168.0.1 - 192.168.255.1
NOTE: The final number does not have to be 1, but it is a simple, logical convention for routers that leaves higher numbers free for other devices.
Netmask:
(Default: 255.255.255.0) The netmask controls how many IP addresses can be used in this network. The
default value allows for 254 IP addresses, which is enough in most cases.
Routing Mode:
(Default: NAT) Each network can use a unique routing mode to connect to the Internet and other local
networks. NAT is desirable for most configurations. Select from the following options in the dropdown list:
