Chapter 3: IP and Network

Communication Settings

The parameters on the IP Setup tab or IP Setup configuration Web page are typically set by a network
administrator. These are the parameters that set the Ethernet address and other communications for the
transceiver. Within IP Setup, you set the following types of parameters:

l

LAN interface configuration (management) - The local area network (LAN) settings.

l

VLAN configuration (data) - The virtual local area network (VLAN) settings. A VLAN is a group of
devices with a common set of requirements that communicate as if they were attached to the
same domain, regardless of their network location.

Not every network needs or uses VLAN IDs. The VLAN Mode setting is normally set to Disabled.
Changes to VLAN settings should be approved by a network administrator.

l

NTP client - The Network Time Protocol (NTP) settings. The device whose IP address you enter
here is the device that the transceivers in your network use to synchronize their internal clocks.

l

Syslog server - The system logging settings. Enabling and setting IP addresses in the system
server settings instructs the transceiver to send all its log entries to a system server. For more
information, see "Viewing the System Log" on page 71.
