Setting the operating mode
Via the operating mode, you define the role your Gigaset SE680 WiMAX will play when
establishing and administering Internet connections.
You can run your Gigaset SE680 WiMAX in the following operating modes:
ì
To change the operating mode, open the
Advanced Settings
tab and select
Oper-
ating Mode
from the menu.
When you change the operating mode, your device is restarted.
In
Bridge
mode, the following functions are no longer available:
u
The DHCP server of the Gigaset SE680 WiMAX is deactivated (see page 29) because
the network components receive IP addresses in the public network.
If you want to access the configuration program of the Gigaset SE680 WiMAX via
your PC, you must connect the PC directly to the LAN port. You must also temporarily
assign it a static IP address in the address range of the Gigaset SE680 WiMAX. If you
want to use the Internet again after this, reset your PC to “automatic IP address”. For
details see the document “Configuring the local area network” on the product CD.
u
The firewall of your Gigaset SE680 WiMAX is disabled and cannot be enabled (see
page 26).
u
The NAT function of your Gigaset SE680 WiMAX is disabled. This means that the
functions Port Forwarding (see page 27) and Exposed Host (see page 28) are not
available.
If necessary you may have to protect your network components against unwelcome
access from the Internet by appropriate means (e.g. firewall software).
Router
Your Gigaset SE680 WiMAX serves as an Internet router for the network
components connected to the LAN port, i.e. it establishes the connection to
the Internet and ensures the transfer of the communication data to and
from the Internet (default).
Bridge
The network components initiate and control their Internet connection
themselves. Your Gigaset SE680 WiMAX only allows the communication
data to and from the Internet to pass through.
