This page shows the Smart Home Server’s name (SerenitiSHS) and the
version of the software running on the Smart Home Server. It also shows
its two IP and MAC addresses. The reason the Smart Home Server has
two such addresses is because it connects to both the Internet and your
home network.
WAN IP AND MAC ADDRESSES
The IP and MAC addresses of the Internet connection are referred to as
the WAN (Wide Area Network) addresses. The Ethernet port on the
back of the Smart Home Server labeled WAN is the port that connects
the Smart Home Server to the Internet via your broadband modem.
The WAN IP address is assigned by your Internet service provider. The
MAC address is burned into the WAN port’s network interface card
(NIC).
