Configuring The Local Network - Infinity Check Point L-71WD Administration Manual

Configuring the Local Network

The Device > Local Network page lets you set and enable the local network connections, switches,
bridge or wireless network (on wireless devices only).
Note - 1100 appliances only support IPv4 addresses. 1200R and 1400 appliances support both IPv4
and IPv6 addresses.
The Network table shows all available network connections.
The page also lets you:
• Configure multiple switches (port based VLANs) between the available local LAN interfaces
and wireless networks. Between the LAN ports of a switch, traffic is not monitored or
inspected. Note - MAC filtering is disabled on switch networks. To enforce MAC filtering on a
network with several ports, use bridge.
• Configure multiple bridges between interfaces. Traffic in a bridge is always monitored and
inspected by the appliance.
• Create and configure tag based VLANs (802.1q) on any of the LAN interfaces or DMZ.
• Create and configure VPN tunnels (VTI) which can be used to create routing rules which
determine which traffic is routed through the tunnel and therefore also encrypted (Route
based VPN).
• On wireless devices - Add new wireless networks (Virtual Access Points). This can also be
done through the Device > Wireless page.
1400 appliances only: There are two radio transmitters: 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. Each network is
configured separately under a specified transmitter.
To create any of the above options:
Click New and choose the option you want.
To edit/delete/enable/disable any of the above options:
Select the relevant row and click Edit/Delete/Enable/Disable.
Notes:
• Physical interfaces cannot be deleted.
•
Editing an interface that is part of a switch or a bridge lets you remove it from the switch or
bridge.
• When a LAN or DMZ interface is part of an Internet connection, it is still visible on this page,
but can be only be configured through the Device > Internet page.
• For each network, the table on this page shows you:
•
Name - Name of the network, interfaces that participate (if there are multiple interfaces),
and a description (optional)
•
Local IP Address
• Subnet Mask
• MAC Address
• Status - Shows a status for physical interfaces and wireless networks:
Physical interfaces - Shows cable connection status of each physical interface that is

enabled. Otherwise, it shows disabled.
Wireless networks - Shows if the wireless network is up or disabled.
