DHCP Client (Disable) – Select this option to manually configure a static address for
the wireless bridge.
• IP Address: The IP address of the wireless bridge. Valid IP addresses consist of
four decimal numbers, 0 to 255, separated by periods.
• Subnet Mask: The mask that identifies the host address bits used for routing to
specific subnets.
• Default Gateway: The default gateway is the IP address of the router for the
wireless bridge, which is used if the requested destination address is not on the
local subnet.
If you have management stations, DNS, or other network servers located on
another subnet, type the IP address of the default gateway router in the text field
provided. Otherwise, leave the address as all zeros (0.0.0.0).
• Primary and Secondary DNS Address: The IP address of Domain Name Servers
on the network. A DNS maps numerical IP addresses to domain names and can
be used to identify network hosts by familiar names instead of the IP addresses.
If you have one or more DNS servers located on the local network, type the IP
addresses in the text fields provided. Otherwise, leave the addresses as all zeros
(0.0.0.0).
CLI Commands for TCP/IP Settings – From the global configuration mode, enter the
interface configuration mode with the interface ethernet command. Use the
ip dhcp
command to enable the DHCP client, or
no ip dhcp
to disable it. To manually
configure an address, specify the new IP address, subnet mask, and default
gateway using the
ip address
command. To specify DNS server addresses use the
dns server
command. Then use the
show interface ethernet
command from the
Exec mode to display the current IP settings.
MRW55(config)#interface ethernet 7-64
