Wi-Fi devices
On supported models, the MP has a Wi-Fi radio for wireless LAN connections.
Note: WiFi is only avaialble on MP models with W. For example, MP 890W or MP 597W.
Command Description
Primary Gateway Your device is the Primary Gateway for the network behind a router connected to it and
ALEOS responds to ARPs for all non-host ethernet subnets.
Host Network 2 and
Host Network 3
Network to route to host IF.
Host Network 2 and 3 are secondary networks connected to the AirLink device. For
example, 192.168.10.0.
Host Network Subnet
Mask 2 and Host
Network Subnet Mask
3
This is the subnet for the applicable network. For example, 255.255.255.0, which would
with the setting above define a secondary network of 192.168.10.0/24.
Host Network 2 Route
and Host Network 3
Route
This indicates what type of router is being used for the host network. If it is a traditional
router which handles ARP for addresses on it's subnet, select Ethernet. If it is a "dumb"
gateway which is a conduit to a subnet but doesn't handle any ARP, select Gateway.
When Gateway is selected, ALEOS will ARP for the destination address and send it to the
defined Host Network Gateway address.
Host Network 2
Gateway and Host
Network 3 Gateway
This is the IP address of the 'dumb' Gateway. This should be left as 0.0.0.0 if the Host
Network Route is Ethernet.
Many routers will respond to ARP requests for subnets behind the router. The default is
Ethernet, which means the user does not have to configure the gateway IP. However some
routers don’t respond to ARP requests for subnets. Hence, users need to enter the
gateway address.
