7.4 The LAN IP Alias Screen
IP alias partitions a physical network into different logical networks over the same
Ethernet interface. The ZyXEL Device supports three logical LAN interfaces via its
single physical Ethernet interface with the ZyXEL Device itself as the gateway for
each LAN network. With IP alias, you can also configure firewall rules to control
access between the LAN's logical networks (subnets). The following figure shows a
LAN divided into subnets A, B, and C.
Figure 86 Physical Network & Partitioned Logical Networks
Note: Make sure that the subnets of the logical networks do not overlap.
Click Network > LAN > IP Alias to open the following screen. Use this screen to
change your ZyXEL Device’s IP alias settings.
