MAC Address

The MAC (Media Access Control) or Ethernet address on a LAN (Local

 

Area Network) is unique to your computer (six pairs of hexadecimal

 

notation).

 

A network interface card such as an Ethernet adapter has a hardwired

 

address that is assigned at the factory. This address follows an industry

 

standard that ensures no other adapter has a similar address.

 

 

Remove

Click this to delete a static DHCP entry. You cannot delete a dynamic

 

DHCP entry. A window displays asking you to confirm that you want to

 

delete the selected entry.

 

 

6.6 The IP Alias Screen

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

When you use IP alias, you can also configure firewall rules to control access between the LAN's logical networks (subnets).
