Local Network - Check Point QUANTUM SPARK 1900 Getting Started Manual

Local Network

In the Local Network page, select to enable or disable switch on LAN ports and configure your
network settings. By default, they are enabled. You can change the IP address and stay
connected as the appliance's original IP is kept as an alias IP until the first time you boot the
appliance.
Tell me about the fields...
n Enable switch on LAN ports - Aggregates all LAN ports to act as a switch with one IP
address for the switch. If this option is disabled (checkbox is cleared), the local network is
defined as LAN1 only.
n Network name - Enter the network name.
n IP address - You can modify the IP address and maintain connectivity. The appliance's
original IP is kept as an alias IP to maintain connectivity until the wizard is completed.
n Subnet mask - Enter the subnet mask.
n DHCP server and range fields - DHCP is enabled by default with a default network
range. Make sure to set the appropriate range and do not include predefined static IPs in
your network.
n Exclusion range - Set the exclusion range for IP addresses that are not defined by the
DHCP server. Define the range of IP addresses that the DHCP excludes when IP
addresses are assigned in the network. The appliance's IP address is automatically
excluded from the range. For example, if the appliance IP is 1.1.1.1 the range also starts
from 1.1.1.1, but excludes its own IP address.
