5.2.2System Mode

The System Mode page enables you to configure system-level operating modes that use bridging in addition or instead of routing protocols. You can also configure a feature in which the mode is selected automatically at start-up, based on the type of Internet connection detected on the LAN PC(s).

The current system mode is shown on the System View page that displays when you access the configuration program. The system mode is not configured using a single setting. Rather, it is determined at system startup based on whether the device's LAN and WAN interfaces are configured with IP information (i.e., are "IP-enabled"), and whether the Bridging setting on the System Mode page is enabled or disabled.

zWhen the Bridging setting on the System Mode page is disabled, then the system mode will display as "Routing".

zWhen the Bridging setting is enabled and at least one LAN or WAN interface is IP-enabled, then the system mode will display as "Routing and Bridging."

zWhen the Bridging setting is enabled and no interfaces are IP enabled, then the device is considered to be in Bridging Mode. Note, however, that in this case you would not be able to access Configuration Manager; without being IP-enabled, the Ethernet interface could not communicate using the Internet protocol HTTP, which is used to display information in your Web browser.
