Installation and Operation ManualChapter 4 Configuration

Configuring the LAN Port

 

ASMi-52 includes a 10/100BaseT port that can be used as a user or management

 

port. The LAN port operates in a self-learning bridge or transparent mode, with or

 

without autonegotiation.

Note

 

If the LAN port serves as a management port only, it operates in transparent mode

 

with autonegotiation enabled.

 

 

Configuring the LAN Port Operation Mode

 

 

 

In the transparent mode, the LAN port operates with a disabled filter, passing all

 

 

 

frames transparently. When operating as a self-learning bridge, the LAN port filters

 

 

 

the packets received from the local LAN and transfers through the link only frames

 

 

 

destined for another LAN.

 

 

 

 

To configure the LAN operation mode:

 

 

 

 

1. From the Operation Mode menu, select the Bridging Mode option (Main

 

 

 

menu > Configuration > LAN Configuration > Local LAN Configuration >

 

 

 

Bridging Mode) to enable bridge mode.

 

 

Note

 

 

 

 

 

If LAN interface is used for data, the Operation Mode is set to Bridge. If Ethernet is

 

 

 

used for management purposes only, then the Operation Mode is permanently set

 

 

 

to Transparent.

 

 

 

 

The LAN Configuration menu appears.

 

 

 

2. From the LAN Configuration menu, select Save to save your changes.

Note

 

 

 

 

 

If autonegotiation is enabled, the maximum autonegotiation capability rate is

 

100BaseT full duplex mode. If autonegotiation is disabled, it is called default type or 10BaseT.
