DESCRIPTION

IP Address

 

Assignment

 

 

 

Get

This option appears when the MGNT Mode is set to Stand Alone AP.

Automatically

Select this to make the interface a DHCP client and automatically get

 

the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address from a DHCP

 

server.

 

 

Use Fixed IP

Select this if you want to specify the IP address, subnet mask, and

Address

gateway manually. You can only configure a fixed IP address when the

 

MGNT Mode is set to Stand Alone AP.

 

 

IP Address

Enter the IP address for this interface.

 

 

Subnet Mask

Enter the subnet mask of this interface in dot decimal notation. The

 

subnet mask indicates what part of the IP address is the same for all

 

computers in the network.

 

 

Gateway

Enter the IP address of the gateway. The NWA3000-N series AP sends

 

packets to the gateway when it does not know how to route the

 

packet to its destination. The gateway should be on the same network

 

as the interface.

 

 

DNS Server

Use this section to specify the IP addresses for the NWA3000-N series

Settings

AP to use. Use one of the following ways to specify these IP

 

addresses.

 

User-Defined- enter a static IP address.

 

From ISP - select the DNS server that another interface received

 

from its DHCP server.

 

 

Add

Click this to create a new entry. Select an entry and click Add to

 

create a new entry after the selected entry.

 

 

Edit

Double-click an entry or select it and click Edit to be able to modify

 

the entry’s settings.

 

 

Remove

To remove an entry, select it and click Remove. The NWA3000-N

 

series AP confirms you want to remove it before doing so. Note that

 

subsequent entries move up by one when you take this action.

 

 

Move

To change an entry’s position in the numbered list, select the entry

 

and click Move to display a field to type a number for where you want

 

to put it and press [ENTER] to move the rule to the number that you

 

typed.

 

 

#

This is the index number of the DNS server address entry. The

 

ordering of your entries is important as the NWA3000-N series AP

 

uses them in sequence.

 

A hyphen (-) displays for the default DNS server address entry. The

 

NWA3000-N series AP uses this default entry if it cannot get a reply

 

for any of the other servers.

 

 

Type

This displays whether the DNS server IP address is assigned by a

 

DHCP server dynamically (From DHCP), is configured manually

 

(User-Defined), or is the default entry the NWA3000-N series AP

 

uses if it cannot get a reply for any of the other servers.
