Managing Data Devices
Data settings prevent unauthorized users from gaining access to your Linksys One network through another network. Data settings are configurable from the Data Devices tab in the Linksys One Portal.
These sections help you manage the data devices on your network:
•”Viewing the Status of Data Devices” section on page 94
•”Adding DNS Names for Static IP Devices” section on page 95
•”Allowing Access to Network Services” section on page 96
•”Using the Services Router Advanced Interface” section on page 98
Viewing the Status of Data Devices
The Status screen lists all data devices that have been assigned an IP address by the Services Router. The Status window is a good way to verify that the Services Router can “see” other devices on the system. If a device is not listed here, it is not communicating with the Services Router. Note that only Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) devices display in this window. If a device does not appear, it may be because it is assigned a static IP address.
To access the Status window:
•Click the Data Status > Status tab.
You’ll see the following status about data devices on your network:
Item | Description | |
|
| |
Hostname | A unique name for the device. Any device connected to the system must | |
have a host name. | ||
| ||
|
| |
| The Internet Protocol (IP) address of the device. The IP address is either | |
IP | assigned dynamically using DHCP or you can assign a static IP address on | |
the Static IPs page. Devices assigned a static IP address do not display in | ||
| ||
| this window. | |
