2.4. Device Mode Configuration

The device operational mode is displayed at the top right hand corner of each page. The device mode configuration allows the user to configure the airClient TOTAL to a NAT (Network Address Translation) mode or Router mode for 3416-01 and 3416-02 models, and NAT or Router or Bridge mode for the 3416- 03 model. These modes are explained below.

NAT: This is the default operating mode. This mode allows you to use one segment of private IP addresses for multiple hosts to access the external network using a single wireless IP address. This translation helps in protecting the access of internal hosts from external network. This mode is available in all sB3416 models.

Router: This mode allows you to configure different segment of IP address in Ethernet and Wireless interface. A standard routing functionality is available in this mode. This mode is available in all sB3416 models.

Bridge: This mode allows you to configure both WDS and non-WDS modes in bridge mode. In non- WDS Client Bridge mode, sB3416-03 can be configured for both Non-transparent and transparent bridging. The bridge modes are only available in sB3416-03 model.
