LABEL DESCRIPTION
Table of Current Interface Parameters
No Select the number of the interface that you want to change and click MODIFY .
Status This displays an active or inactive interface.
Protocol This column displays the type of interface for which traffic goes through the ZyAIR.
They are listed as WLAN, Ethernet or PPPoE.
IP address This is the IP address of your ZyAIR in dotted decimal notation, (default is set as
shown in
Figure 7-1 ).
Net Mask The net mask specifies the network number portion of an IP address. Your device will
compute the net mask automatically based on the IP address that you entered. You
do not need to change the computer subnet mask unless you are instructed to do so.
NAT (PAT) Network Address Translation (NAT) allows the translation of an Internet protocol
address used within one network to a different IP address known within another
network. The ZyAIR uses a many to one NAT.
In
Many-to-One mode , the ZyAIR maps multiple local IP addresses to one global IP
address.
For more information about NAT refer to the NAT chapter in this
User's Guide .
Bridging Bridging provides LAN to LAN frame forwarding services between two or more LANs.
Frames from one LAN are forwarded across a bridge to a connected LAN, although
filtering can be employed to selectively forward frames. The bridging displays
Join or
Not Join depending on whether the ZyAIR has been configured as a bridge or an
access point.
ISP Index This is the ISP name given to your current ISP pool in ISP Parameters.
IPCP IP Control Protocol allows changes to IP parameters such as the IP address in PPPoE
interface only.
Idle Time Out This displays how many minutes the web configurator can be left idle before the
session times out.
The default is 3 minutes. After it times out you have to log in with your password again.
Very long idle timeouts may have security risks.
A value of "-" means a management session never times out, no matter how long it
has been left idle (not recommended).
MODIFY Click MODIFY to change the configuration of your desired Interface.
