10.1 Configuring General Settings

Purpose
Network settings must be properly configured before you operate the device over network.
Step 1 Enter the Network Settings interface.
Menu > Configuration > Network > General
Step 2 Configure the following parameters: Working Mode, NIC Type, IPv4 Address, IPv4 Gateway,
MTU, DNS Server and Main NIC.
Working Mode
3 types of working modes are selectable: Multi-address, Load Balance and Net
Fault-tolerance.
 Multi-address Mode: The parameters of the two NIC cards can be configured
independently. You can select LAN1 or LAN2 in the NIC type field for parameter settings.
You can select one NIC card as default route. And then the system is connecting with the
extranet and the data will be forwarded through the default route.
 Net-fault Tolerance Mode: The two NIC cards use the same IP address, and you can select
the Main NIC to LAN1 or LAN2. By this way, in case of one NIC card failure, the device will
automatically enable the other standby NIC card so as to ensure the normal running of the
whole system.
 Load Balance Mode: By using the same IP address and two NIC cards share the load of the
total bandwidth, which enables the system to provide two Gigabit network capacity.
