4.5.2. Dashboard: Router Pages
A router configuration signifies the creation of a new network, or
sub-network. The Wireless Space will assign IP addresses to all con-
nected devices, wired and/or wireless. Router configurations have
three important Dashboard pages: Network WAN, Network LAN,
and Firewall.
Network LAN is included in the Basic administration section but the
page has a different meaning for router configurations. As a router,
the Wireless Space becomes the LAN interface for the network. As
a switch, the Network LAN page points to the router, server, or In-
ternet provider that manages IP addresses. See 3.6.6. Dashboard:
Network LAN for more information on the Network LAN page in a
switch configuration.
