Chapter 6 – Bridge Modes
6.5 Bridge not active Mode
If the bridge function of the radio modem is switched off, the radio modem can be
accessed both from the WLAN and via the LAN interface without data being ex
-
changed between the LAN and WLAN.
This mode could be useful, for example, if the radio modem is only to be used as an
Ethernet-to-Serial adapter. In this mode, 2 different accesses (LAN + WLAN) to the
radio modem can be configured.
The IP configuration for the WLAN interface is set as usual under Configuration ->
Network -> IP Address (see 5.3.2.1 on page 45). The IP configuration for the LAN side
becomes visible as soon as the
Bridge active
option is deactivated.

Routing Priority
: If WLAN and LAN
are active, a gateway is usually
also defined for both interfaces. If
an application on the radio mo
-
dem actively wants to establish a
connection, the gateway to be
used is defined here.
Enable LAN DHCP Client
: This can
be used to activate the DHCP cli
-
ent on the LAN side, which of
course only makes sense if a
DHCP server is also active in that
network.
Host Name
: The DHCP client uses
the name entered here to request
an IP address from the server.
Enable fallback to static IP
: In the
event that the DHCP server does
not assign an address, you can
also enter IP data in the following,
which will then be activated.
In the following area, all IP data of
the LAN interface can be statical
-
ly defined if no DHCP is active.
