6.6.2 Local Network Editor
The Local Network Editor contains the following tabs: IP Settings, Interfaces, Access Control, DHCP Server and
Schedule.
IP Settings:
Enabled: This is selected by default. The network can be
manually disabled – or in some specific situations automatically
disabled – to work with certain types of modems.
For example, a certain modem can't function when the guest network is
enabled because they share the same IP address range. Using that modem
causes the router to automatically disable the guest network until an
administrator changes the address range for the guest network. Click this box
to enable the network again after changing the IP address range.
Name: This primarily helps to identify this network during other
administration tasks.
Hostname: [Default: cp (for CradlePoint)] The hostname is the
DNS name associated with the router's local area network IP
address.
NOTE: You can access the router's administration pages by typing the
hostname into your browser, so if you change "cp" to another hostname, you
can access the administration pages through the new hostname.
IP Address: This is the address used by the router for local area network communication. Changes to this parameter may
require a restart to computers on this network.
Each network must have a distinct IP address. Most users will want an address from one of the following private IP
ranges:
• 10.0.0.1 - 10.255.255.1
• 172.16.0.1 - 172.31.255.1
• 192.168.0.1 - 192.168.255.1
NOTE: The final number does not have to be 1, but it is a simple, logical convention for routers that leaves higher numbers free for other devices.
