WAN Interface, Reply to Ping on WAN Interface
By default, the radio interface does not respond to pings. If you use a management system (such as
Prizm or WM) that will occasionally ping the SM, set this parameter to Enabled.
LAN Interface
The LAN interface is both the management access through the Ethernet port and the Ethernet-side
address for transport traffic. When NAT is enabled, this interface is redundantly shown as the
NAT Network Interface Configuration on the IP tab of the Configuration web page in the SM.
LAN Interface, IP Address
Assign an IP address for SM management through Ethernet access to the SM. This address
becomes the base for the range of DHCP-assigned addresses.
LAN Interface, Subnet Mask
Assign a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 or a more restrictive subnet mask. Set only the last byte of
this subnet mask. Each of the first three bytes is permanently set to 255.
LAN Interface, DMZ Enable
Either enable or disable DMZ for this SM. See DMZ on Page 159.
LAN Interface, DMZ IP Address
If you enable DMZ in the parameter above, set the last byte of the DMZ host IP address to use for
this SM when DMZ is enabled. Only one such address is allowed. The first three bytes are
identical to those of the NAT private IP address. Ensure that the device that should receive
network traffic behind this SM is assigned this address. The system provides a warning if you
enter an address within the range that DHCP can assign.
LAN DHCP Server
This is the server (in the SM) that provides an IP address to the device connected to the Ethernet
port of the SM.
LAN DHCP Server, DHCP Server Enable/Disable
Select either
• Enabled to
o allow this SM to assign IP addresses, subnet masks, and gateway IP addresses to attached
devices.
o assign a start address for DHCP.
o designate how many IP addresses may be temporarily used (leased).
