The Additional Subnet Screen - ZyXEL Communications SBG5500-A User Manual

6.5 The Additional Subnet Screen

Use the Additional Subnet screen to configure IP alias.
IP alias allows you to partition a physical network into different logical networks over the same Ethernet
interface. The SBG supports multiple logical LAN interfaces via its physical Ethernet interface with the
SBG itself as the gateway for the LAN network. When you use IP alias, you can also configure firewall
rules to control access to the LAN's logical network (subnet).

DESCRIPTION
Select the interface group name for which you want to configure the IP alias settings. See
Section 6.7 on page 98 for how to create a new interface group. A newly created local network
(interface group) belongs to the LAN zone by default.
Select the check box to configure a LAN network for the SBG.
Enter the IP address of your SBG in dotted decimal notation.
Your SBG will automatically calculate the subnet mask based on the IP address that you assign.
Unless you are implementing subnetting, use the subnet mask computed by the SBG.
Click Apply to save your changes.
Click Reset to return the screen to its last-saved settings.
