6. Configuring LAN Settings
This chapter describes how to configure LAN properties for the LAN interface
on the SL6000/SL6300 that communicates with your LAN computers. You'll
learn to configure IP address, DHCP and DNS server for your LAN in this
chapter.
6.1 LAN IP Address
If you are using the SL6000/SL6300 with multiple PCs on your LAN, you
must connect the LAN via the Ethernet ports on the built-in Ethernet switch.
You must assign a unique IP address to each device residing on your LAN. The
LAN IP address identifies the SL6000/SL6300 as a node on your network; that
is, its IP address must be in the same subnet as the PCs on your LAN. The
default LAN IP for SL6000/SL6300 is 192.168.1.1.
Definition: A network node can be thought of as any interface where
a device connects to the network, such as the SL6000/SL6300's
LAN port and the network interface cards on your PCs. See Appen-
dix A for an explanation of subnets.
You can change the default to reflect the set of IP addresses that you want to
use with your network.
Note: The SL6000/SL6300 itself can function as a DHCP server for
your LAN computers, as described in section 6.2.3 Configuring
DHCP Server, but not for its own LAN port.
