174 Configuring the Wireless Array

5. Configuration Server Protocol / IP Settings: Choose DHCP to instruct

the Array to use DHCP when assigning IP addresses to the Array, or

choose Static IP if you intend to enter IP addresses manually. If you select

the Static IP option you must specify the IP address, IP subnet mask and

default gateway.

a. Address: If you selected the Static IP option, enter a valid IP address

for the Array. To use any of the remote connections (Web, SNMP, or

SSH), a valid IP address must be established.

b. Subnet Mask: If you selected the Static IP option, enter a valid IP

address for the subnet mask (the default for Class C is 255.255.255.0).

The subnet mask defines the number of IP addresses that are

available on the routed subnet where the Array is located.

c. Default Gateway: If you selected the Static IP option, enter a valid IP

address for the default gateway. This is the IP address of the router

that the Array uses to send data to other networks. (You don’t need to

enter the gateway if it is on the same subnet as the Array.)

d. Click the Apply button for this interface when done making IP

changes.

6. Static Route (IP Address/Mask): (For XN Arrays, Fast Ethernet port

only) The 10-100 Ethernet Port may be used for managing the Array out

of band from the Gigabit Ethernet ports. The 10-100 port will route only

management traffic, using a static route that may be configured using this

field.

7. When done configuring all interfaces as desired, click Save changes to

flash if you wish to make your changes permanent.
