iv.
The eNB can use one of 3 connection services: DHCP, PPPoE, or Static IP,
as described below. Choose a
Connect Via
option for this eNB.
•
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) – The eNB’s IP address
will be obtained dynamically from the local DHCP server. The current
DHCP server IP address will be displayed, along with the link speed.
When DHCP is selected as the connection method, there are no
further WAN fields to configure in this window.
•
Point-to-Point Protocol Over Ethernet (PPPoE) – not recommended.
If PPPoE is selected, you will be prompted to enter the user name
and password. The range of each is 1 to 100 digits. You can also
enter an access controller name and service name.
•
Static IP – IPv4 address, netmask, and gateway or IP address of the
Domain Name Server (DNS), where multiple addresses are allowed.
b.
LAN - The LAN address is the same one used to access the eNB GUI:
192.168.150.1. The subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.

Optional: If a local DHCP server will be used, go to the Network > DHCP menu and
click on the check box next to
LAN DHCP Server Enabled
(Figure 3-17). Enter the start
(lowest) leased IP address and the end (highest) leased IP address in the range. The
lease time field is used to indicate how long a leased IP address remains active
before it expires. The range of time may be up to 9,999 hours; the default is 12 hrs.
