Chapter 6 LAN Screens
6.10 LAN Port Roles
Use the Port Roles screen to set ports as part of the LAN, DMZ and/or WLAN interface. Ports 1~4 on the ZyWALL can be part of the LAN, DMZ or WLAN interface.
"Do the following if you are configuring from a computer connected to a LAN, DMZ or WLAN port and changing the port's role:
1A port's IP address varies as its role changes, make sure your computer's IP address is in the same subnet as the ZyWALL's LAN, DMZ or WLAN IP address.
2Use the appropriate LAN, DMZ or WLAN IP address to access the ZyWALL.
To change your ZyWALL’s port role settings, click NETWORK > LAN > Port Roles. The screen appears as shown.
The radio buttons correspond to Ethernet ports on the front panel of the ZyWALL. On the ZyWALL, ports 1 to 4 are all LAN ports by default.
"Your changes are also reflected in the DMZ Port Roles and WLAN Port Roles screens.
