Figure 34. Setting the addressing scheme
10.1 Implicit Addressing Scheme
The implicit addressing scheme requires the sharing of a class C network between all active
client access interfaces. The subnet address space is based on the node ID and the LAN
prefix as shown in Figure 35.
Figure 35. Subnet address structure
If the EL-500 is operating in centralized DHCP server mode, the addresses used for
the implicit addressing scheme have no bearing on the addresses that are assigned
to client devices through DHCP.
The default division of the class C address space is shown in Table 7. It is possible to change
this configuration, assigning larger address spaces to certain interfaces if not all interfaces are
enabled.
