Page 62: Network Interface | Configuration | Bridge
LAN interfaces together to form one bigger (logical) network interface. There are some restrictions for bridge management that shall be taken into account: There is special bridge br1 in BW1330 that cannot be removed. This bridge initially contains two interfaces: wlan1_0 and ixp0. - Page 63 Priority – specify the priority of ports with equal cost. You can use this to control which port gets used when there are redundant paths. If you want to remove interface from bridge click delete button. e.g remove ixp0 from bridge. Click delete button on the ixp0 column. BROWAN Page...

IP Address and Netmask – specify the IP address and netmask of the management subnet. IP address will be set on the network interface as an alias, so you can connect to the BW1330 using this address. This IP address should be used on access points as the gateway address. -
Page 69: Network Interface | Dns
There is a solution – the administrator can use GRE tunnel(see: Network Interface | Tunnels) to setup a tunnel between the administrator's computer and the BW1330. The only addresses visible on the Internet will be the BW1330 WAN IP address and the administrator's computer (or router) IP address. -
Page 70: Network Interface | Dhcp
Version 1.0 Network Interface | DHCP The BW1330 controller can act as a DHCP server and/or as a DHCP relay gateway. The DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) service is supported on the LAN interfaces [ixp0/vlan[n]]. This service enables clients on the LAN to request configuration information, such as an IP address, from a server.
