The Admin functions allow you to access all of the features you will
need to perform an initial configuration of the SV1115IPEXT.
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
Automatic network configuration using DHCP is: Enabled/Disabled.
This feature applies only to the LAN port on the rear panel, and is
enabled by default. When enabled, the unit will automatically configure
itself with an IP address when a DHCP server is present. When
disabled, the LAN port will use the values assigned to it on the IP
Addresses and Routing table below.
IP Addresses and Routing
This table allows you to assign IP information for the LAN and WAN
ports separately. If you are using DHCP, the values for the LAN port
will be filled in automatically and any changes made will not affect the
setup. If Ethernet Bridging is enabled, the WAN port will use the same
settings as the LAN port, and any changes will not affect the setup
for that port. Adjusting the setting for the WAN port allows you greater
control over how the SV1115IPEXT is configured for access from
outside the local network, particularly if a firewall or proxy is in use.
This section allows you to specify DNS servers and the default DNS
domain suffix in use on the network. If DHCP is enabled, some of these
values may be supplied automatically.
