Chapter 3 - Configuring the REX2

3To set the Line IP address and subnet mask, type 2 then press ENTER . At the prompt, enter the Line IP address and subnet mask for the Campus-REX2 Line port.

Required format is nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn

Enter Line IP Address: 192.150.10.20

Enter Subnet Mask (<CR> only=default Mask 255.255.255.0): 255.255.255.0

This value is the Campus-REX2 WAN port IP address. The Line

IP address cannot be on the same subnet as the LAN port IP address.

4To configure the default gateway, type 3 then press ENTER . At the prompt, enter the IP address of the default gateway through which the Campus-REX2 forwards datagrams if it does not have a valid entry for the destination in its routing table. The default value for this parameter is 0.0.0.0.

Required format is nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn

Enter Default Gateway: 192.150.10.50

This parameter provides the default gateway through which packets are routed to the internet if the next hop IP address IP address cannot be identified. You can also configure the default gateway in the static routing table by entering a destination IP address of 0.0.0.0 with a subnet mask of 0.0.0.0 and then enter the IP address for the default gateway.

5Type R then press ENTER to return to the Router Configuration screen (page 3-46). (Typing M will return you to the Main Menu.)
