GXE502X User Manual 7/9/2008
8. System Configuration
System configuration and administration can be configured via the System Configuration menu. The following sub menus can be used to manage different system configurations..
- Networking Setting
The Networking Setting sub menu allows users to configure the LAN-side IP address and DHCP server settings, as well as the WAN-side settings like IP address of the WAN port, Dynamic DNS and port-forwarding settings.
•LAN Setting:
Set the LAN-port IP address by entering the IP address used as the LAN Base IP. Enter the subnet mask in the LAN Subnet Mask setting.
Note: Please be advised that this setting should be configured prior to auto-provisioning phones through the Express Setup menu. Otherwise the GXE502X will use an incorrect IP address for the SIP server after the LAN-port IP address changes.
oDHCP Configuration:
To use the GXE502X as a DHCP server on the LAN-side, set the DHCP Enable setting to Enable (It is enabled in the default settings). Users may specify the range of the IP addresses offered by the DHCP server by setting the Start of DHCP IP Pool and End of DHCP IP Pool settings. The DHCP IP Lease Time allows users to specify the number of hours an IP address is leased to a device before renewal.
•WAN Setting:
oThe WAN-port can be configured to be dynamically assigned via DHCP, to use PPPoE, or to be static. Select the radio button beside the option that you wish to use. To use PPPoE, enter the PPPoE account, password and DNS server information provided by the ISP in the provided fields. If statically configuring the WAN-port IP address, please enter the IP address details from the ISP in the provided fields.
