This scheme is ideal for a managed network of users who regularly need to communicate inside
and outside of network coverage or for a network lacking a DHCP server.
3.3.3 User Supplied Scheme
Operating under the
User Supplied
scheme, the EWR device is configured to use a
fixed
IP
address and subnet mask. The user is responsible for configuring options that would otherwise
be configured by a DHCP server.
It is also up to the user to ensure that the assigned address is routable on the core network (if
core network access is needed) and that it does not conflict with other addresses in use. This is
analogous to and carries the same caveats as plugging an Ethernet card into a LAN and
manually assigning an address to the card.
The user is free to communicate while associated or unassociated. This scheme is ideal for
small, unmanaged networks lacking a DHCP server.
3.3.3.1
Setting User Supplied IP Addresses
In order to set the user-supplied IP address for the EWR/PWR, the User-Supplied radio button
must be selected. At that point, the user may enter an IP address and subnet mask consistent
with the existing network. The user should also enter the IP address of the default gateway and
DNS server, as well as enter the domain name.
Note that this configures the
user-supplied address
for the EWR/PWR device. To configure
addresses for Ethernet clients, please refer to the description in the
External Device
Provisioning
section of this guide.
A similar screen will be displayed for the access account (the web page will indicate
Normal
User
Login). Normal users can change only those settings for which they have system
privileges.
When the desired configuration has been completed, click on the
Apply
button on the
Device
Addressing
panel on the
Device Administration Configuration
Page. You will be prompted to
verify that the changes to the configuration are correct before the changes are actually applied.
Figure 3-7.
Configuration Change Dialog
When you click on the
OK
button, the configuration will be saved in Flash. The
System
Settings Have Been Saved
message on the
System Update Save Completed
page will then
confirm the changes have been saved.
