Any IP Setup

Select the Active check box to enable the Any IP feature. This allows a computer

 

to access the Internet without changing the network settings (such as IP address

 

and subnet mask) of the computer, even when the IP addresses of the computer

 

and the Prestige are not in the same subnet.

 

When you disable the Any IP feature, only computers with dynamic IP addresses

 

or static IP addresses in the same subnet as the Prestige’s LAN IP address can

 

connect to the Prestige or access the Internet through the Prestige.

Apply

Click Apply to save your changes back to the Prestige.

5.10 Configuring IP Alias

IP alias allows you to partition a physical network into different logical networks over the same Ethernet interface. The Prestige supports three logical LAN interfaces via its single physical Ethernet interface with the Prestige itself as the gateway for each LAN network.

Note: Make sure that the subnets of the logical networks do not overlap.

The following figure shows a LAN divided into subnets A, B, and C.
