Advanced Networking Features

If necessary, changing the name of the workgroup assigned to the Magnia SG20 can be
done using the same method as changing the Appliance Name (see section above).
Using the same Identification page of the Advance local networking screen, you can
change both the appliance name and the workgroup name.
Changing the workgroup name will effect where the server appears on the network
neighborhood.
Changing the Local IP Addresses
The Magnia SG20 comes with the local network (for client computers connected to the
built in switch) set up in the following way:
❖
Magnia SG20 local IP is 192.168.1.1
❖
DHCP server is on
❖
Subnet mask is 255.255.255.0
❖
DHCP range is from 192.168.1.2 through 192.168.1.238
These settings can be changed in the following way:
❖
A new IP address range can be defined (including a new IP address for the Magnia
SG20)
❖
A new address can be defined for the local Magnia SG20 port
❖
A new subnet can be defined
❖
DHCP can be turned on or off (allowing clients to use static IP addresses)
To adjust these settings, go to the Administrative Web site, click on the
Network
tab, and
select the
Local
menu option. Click on the
Advanced
button. The screen displaying the
current advanced network settings will appear. Click on the
Customize
hyperlink next to
the Private Address Settings section.
NOTE: If you change the Private IP address range, then the Administrative screen
(at 192.168.1.1) is no longer active. This address cannot match the public WAN port
address.
