IP Settings
Only one VLAN can be selected as the management interface, and that
VLAN is identified with a green check mark. All other VLANs show a red x
in the Management Interface field.
When secure management is enabled, you can access the Wireless Edge
Services xl Module’s Web browser interface only through the IP address
assigned to this VLAN. To enable secure management, click the Enable Secure
Management VLAN button at the bottom of the screen.
Assigning an IP Address to a VLAN
To assign an IP address to a VLAN, complete these steps:
1. Select Network Setup > Ethernet > Configuration.
2. Click the Add button at the bottom of the screen. The Add New screen is
displayed.
Figure 6-2. Add New Screen
3. In the VLAN ID field, enter the number of the VLAN.
4. Configure the IP address:
a. Check the Use DHCP to obtain IP Address automatically box if you want
the VLAN to receive an IP address through a DHCP server.
Do not check this box if you want the Wireless Edge Service xl Module
to act as the DHCP server when stations successfully associate to this
VLAN. As a DHCP server, the module would, of course, require a static
address on the VLAN.
b. To configure a static address, in the IP Address and Subnet Mask fields,
enter the IP address and subnet mask.
