2.3.6 Ethernet Settings
Ethernet settings define DHCP functionality, IP address, gateway and DNS name servers. Notice,
that these settings affect only to Ethernet interface.
If Ethernet is selected to be external interface
(see section 2.3.3, Internet Interface for further
information), the settings are defined by the network service provider. If the connection is with fixed
IP address,
DHCP mode
must be selected to be
None
and administrator must fill the fields below
with network service provider defined settings. If the connection supports dynamic IP address,
DHCP mode
must be selected to be
Client
. In this case there is no need for further Ethernet set-
tings modifications, because all the settings are modified automatically by Ailonet.
If Ethernet is used for LAN
, it pays off to select DHCP mode to be
Server
. That way all the de-
vices connected to Ethernet can get their IP addresses and other Ethernet settings from Ailonet
and administration of the LAN becomes easier. In this case
IP address
field is filled with for exam-
ple
192.168.0.1
,
Netmask
with
255.255.255.0
and
Gateway
and
DNS
fields are left blank.
