5: Network Settings 

Network settings for the PremierWave 2050 gateway can be viewed and modified under the 
Network tab in the Web Manager user interface. This chapter describes the following network 
settings:

 Access Point

 Bridge

 Wired (eth0) Network

 Wireless (wlan0) Network

 Wi-Fi Protected Setup

 WLAN Scan/QuickConnect

 WLAN Profiles

Access Point

Configure software-enabled access point interface on this page. Access point status information 
displays at the bottom half of the page.

Table 5-1  Access Point Settings

Access Point Field

Description

State

Select to enable or disable the access point. If enabled, the DHCP server 
will assign IP addresses to the access point clients.

Mode

Select the desired mode from the drop-down menu:

Always Up: 

the SoftAP interface will always be up, allowing clients to 

connect at any time. Default selection.

Triggered:

 in response to an external trigger event, the SoftAP interface 

will come up for a user-configurable amount of time (the 'First Client 
Connect Timeout' and the ‘Last Client Disconnect Timeout’) and allow 
clients to connect. 

First Client Connect Timeout

Enter the number of seconds for the First Client Connect Timeout. Upon 
receiving an external trigger event the SoftAP interface will stay up this 
amount of time waiting for a client to connect.  If, at the end of the First 
Client Connect Timeout no clients have connected, the SoftAP interface 
will immediately go back down. If, during the First Client Connect Timeout 
at least one client has attached, the SoftAP interface will remain up until 
the last client has disconnected.  After the last client has disconnected, the 
soft AP interface will remain up for a user-configurable amount of time (the 
'Last Client Disconnect Timeout',) giving clients an opportunity to 
reconnect.   

Note:

This field appears when Triggered mode is selected.
