2-6 WS2000 Wireless Switch System Reference Guide
Step 5: Configure Subnet1
The WS2000 Network Management System allows the administrator to define and refine the configuration
of the enabled subnets. Each of six subnets (short for “subnetworks”) can be configured as an identifiably
separate part of the switch-managed local area network (LAN). Each subnet can include some combination
of assigned ports and associated wireless LANs (WLANs).
1. Select Network Configuration --> LAN --> Subnet1 from the list on the left. The following screen
appears for the selected subnet.
2. Check to make sure that all the ports and WLAN1 are selected for this subnet. WLAN1 should
automatically be included if the switch and the Access Port are communicating properly. If WLAN1 is not
present in the list, check the following:
• The power to the Access Port
• The connections between the switch and the Access Port
• The LEDs to make sure that lights are on and flashing
Address This IP address allows users from outside the subnet (whether from the WAN or from another subnet
from the same switch) to access the right subnet. An IP address uses a series of four numbers that are
expressed in dot notation, for example, 194.182.1.1.
Interfaces The Interfaces field displays which of the six physical LAN ports are associated with the subnet. The
possible ports are: P1 (port 1), P2, P3, P4, P5, and P6 (from left to right facing the front of the switch).
The administrator assigns a port to a subnet to enable access to the device(s) connected to that port.
The administrator can assign a port to only one subnet.
The Interfaces field also lists the WLANs that are associated with the subnet.
