WAN Interface Settings:
Interface: Use this option to switch the WAN interface of P-360 on (Enable) or off (Disable).
Available in AP-Router mode only!
In AP-Router mode you disable the wired interface to the Ethernet using this radio
button. When the interface is disabled, there are no connections possible between
Ethernet devices and the P-360.
IP Address assigned by ISP is the device's IP address on the WAN interface. If the DHCP client
function is enabled, the IP address assigned by the DHCP server will be used. If no DHCP server can
be found via WAN interface, the IP entered here will be used.
If you change the IP address manually, please make sure that the chosen IP
address is free and belongs to the same IP subnet as the old one. Otherwise you
will loose the connection to the P-360 from your current PC. If you enable the
DHCP client via web browser, the browser will loose the connection after rebooting,
because the IP address assigned by the DHCP server is not predictable.
IP Subnet Mask is the corresponding network mask for the IP address on the WAN interface.
ISP Default Gateway is the gateway to other networks on WAN side.
DHCP Client: enable this option, when a DHCP server is running in the network on WAN side and
you want the DHCP server to assign a free IP address the WAN interface of P-360.
If you are not sure about the IP address of the gateway currently responsible for
your local network or DHCP server please get your IP configuration with "ipconfig"
(Win 2000, Win NT and Win XP) or "winipcfg" (Win 9x and Win Me) from the
command prompt.
LAN Interface Settings (AP-Router mode only):
IP Address is the device's IP address on the LAN interface. In AP-Router mode this is the IP address
on the wireless interface, in client router mode it is the IP address on the wired (Ethernet) interface.
If you enable the DHCP server on the wireless interface in AP-Router mode, please
make sure that the IP address inserted for the wireless interface here is in the
same IP subnet as the IP address pool range of the DHCP server.
IP Subnet Mask is the corresponding network mask for the IP address on the LAN interface.
Please make sure that you use different IP subnets for the WAN and LAN
interfaces. If both address spaces are in the same IP subnet, all routing functions
will be disabled!
Masquerade: When you enable this function, the router will use his network address translation (NAT)
function. In this case all LAN IP addresses are hidden to the WAN network behind the routers WAN IP
address. The P-360 in AP router mode on the other side of the wireless network will forward the data
packets using his own WAN IP address to the wired (Ethernet) network it is connected to.
