When these settings are complete, the PC will have network access.
5.4.1.5 Static IP Setup
If your network requires each PC to have a statically set LAN IP addresses, follow the
previous procedure for all PCs on the network. If the network requires a mix of static and
dynamically assigned IP addresses, assign static IPs outside the DHCP address range for PCs
that require static IP addresses and allow the Vanguard 3G radio modem DHCP to assign the
remaining PC IP addresses.
5.4.2 MAC Pairing
For enhanced security, the user can pair a Host PC to the Vanguard 3G unit by specifying the
Host’s Ethernet MAC address.
This ensures that only this particular host PC can send and receive traffic to and from the
WAN interface of the Vanguard 3G unit. Connections that do not have the matching source
MAC address will be blocked.
Note: Access to the Vanguard 3G unit itself is always available regardless of the Ethernet
MAC address and will not be blocked.
Status:
Vanguard 3G is unpaired: No host PC is paired with the Vanguard 3G unit. Any host PC on
the LAN can send and receive traffic to and from the WAN interface
Vanguard 3G is paired: A host PC is paired with the Vanguard 3G unit. Only the paired host
PC can pass data to and from the WAN interface.
Current Address: The current Ethernet MAC address of the paired host PC.
Note: to change the paired host PC, the user must specify the current Ethernet MAC address
of the last paired host PC.
