Bridge Modes: Example for LAN Client Cloning
The LAN client‘s IP address is used to operate the radio modem‘s internal interfaces
(website, serial, relay, USB). In order to avoid collisions with port numbers used on
the LAN client the radio modem‘s port numbers have to be adjusted. If the LAN cli
-
ent also has running a web server on port 80 the radio modem‘s web server port can
be changed at
Configuration
Admin
Webserver Port
.
Advantages of the LAN Client Cloning mode:
1.
In the WLAN network, the HG G
76343/4/5 will appear along with the LAN cli
-
ent with only one IP address.
Disadvantage of the LAN Client Cloning mode:
1.
Only one LAN client can be connected to the HG G
6.2 NAT and Single Client NAT Mode
In NAT mode, the HG G
76343/4/5 works with different networks on the LAN and
WLAN side. In WLAN the HG G
76343/4/5 communicates with the IP settings as de
-
scribed in 5.3.2.1 on page 45. On the LAN side, a separate network is defined. If con
-
nections to the LAN clients are to be established via WLAN, a table based on the port
numbers is used to determine to which IP address on the LAN side the data is for
-
warded (NAT rules).

Bridge Modes: NAT mode (example configuration)
If only
one
LAN client must be accessible via WLAN, the table can be omitted by
specifying an IP address to which all incoming connection requests via WLAN are
forwarded. In this case, the bridge mode is set to
Single Client NAT
.
