Step 5 LAN Interface Setup page

LAN (Local Area Network) is the collection of phones, PCs, and other equipment that you connect to the BSGX4e ports 1–4. These are referred to as “LAN devices.”

zLAN Interface

This is the address of the switch that drives ports 1–4. When a LAN device sends data to the BSGX4e, it is sending to this address.

The default IP address and mask are automatically filled in. Unless you have professional advice to the contrary, use the default settings.

CAUTION: If you change the IP address, the connection with your PC ceases. You must repeat Step 4 on page 17 and enter the new address into the browser, and you may need to re-configure the DHCP server and change the address in your PC. Seek professional advice for this procedure.

zDHCP Server for LAN devices

The BSGX4e has a DHCP server that provides IP addresses to the LAN devices. Each device receives a unique address. When the BSGX4e sends data to a LAN device, it is sending to this address.

The DHCP server is enabled and configured by default.

Unless you have professional advice to the contrary, use the default settings.
