Configuring SM/BHS’s IP over-the-air access
To access the SM/BHS management interface from a device situated above the AP, the SM/BHS’s
Network Accessibility parameter (under the web GUI at Configuration > IP) may be set to Public.
Table 155 LAN1 Network Interface Configuration tab of IP page attributes
Attribute
Meaning
IP Address
Internet Protocol (IP) address. This address is used by family of Internet
protocols to uniquely identify this unit on a network.
Network
Accessibility
Specify whether the IP address of the SM/BHS must be visible to only a
device connected to the SM/BHS by Ethernet (Local) or be visible to the
AP/BHM as well (Public).
Subnet Mask
If Static IP is set as the Connection Type of the WAN interface, then this
parameter configures the subnet mask of the SM/BHS for RF
management traffic.
Gateway IP Address
If Static IP is set as the Connection Type of the WAN interface, then this
parameter configures the gateway IP address for the SM/BHS for RF
management traffic.
DHCP state
If Enabled is selected, the DHCP server automatically assigns the IP
configuration (IP address, subnet mask, and gateway IP address) and the
values of those individual parameters (above) are not used. The setting
of this DHCP state parameter is also viewable (read only), in the Network
Interface tab of the Home page.
DNS IP Address
Canopy devices allow for configuration of a preferred and alternate DNS
server IP address either automatically or manually. Devices must set
DNS server IP address manually when DHCP is disabled for the
management interface of the device. The default DNS IP addresses are
0.0.0.0 when configured manually.
Preferred DNS
Server
The first address used for DNS resolution.
