Step 2: Configure Subnets

 

 

Field

Description

Interfaces

The Interfaces field displays which of the six physical LAN ports are

 

associated with the subnet. The possible ports are: P1 (port 1), P2,

 

P3, P4, P5, and P6 (from left to right facing the front of the switch).

 

The administrator assigns a port to a subnet to enable access to the

 

device(s) connected to that port. The administrator can assign a port

 

to only one subnet.

 

The Interfaces field also lists the WLANs that are associated with the

 

subnet.

Step 2: Configure Subnets

The WS 2000 Network Management System allows the administrator to define and refine the configuration of the enabled subnets. Each of three subnets (short for “subnetworks”) can be configured as an identifiably separate part of the switch-managed Local Area Network (LAN). Each subnet can include some combination of assigned ports and associated Wireless LANs (WLANs).To configure an enabled subnet, select the subnet name from the Network Configuration --> LAN list in the left. The following screen will appear for the selected subnet.

1.Change the Name of the subnet to use a descriptive name that indicates something about the subnet. The name can contain seven characters, including spaces and numbers. It will appear in the left menu under the LAN menu item.

2.Set an IP address to be used for the subnet. This is how the switch will refer specifically to this subnet. This could be a WAN address; but more likely it will be a non-routable address. An IP address uses a series of four numbers that are expressed in dot notation, for example, 194.182.1.1.
