6.5 DMZ Port Roles

Use the Port Roles screen to set ports as part of the LAN, DMZ and/or WLAN interface.

Ports 1~4 on the LAN-Cell can be part of the LAN, DMZ or WLAN interface.

" Do the following if you are configuring from a computer connected to a LAN,

DMZ or WLAN port and changing the port's role:

1 A port's IP address varies as its role changes, make sure your computer's IP address is in

the same subnet as the LAN-Cell's LAN, DMZ or WLAN IP address.

2 Use the appropriate LAN, DMZ or WLAN IP address to access the LAN-Cell.

To change your LAN-Cell’s port role settings, click NETWORK > DMZ > Port Roles. The

screen appears as shown.

The radio buttons correspond to Ethernet ports on the front panel of the LAN-Cell. On the

LAN-Cell, ports 1 to 4 are all LAN ports by default.

" Your changes are also reflected in the LAN and/or WLAN Port Roles

screens.

RIP Direction RIP (Routing Information Protocol, RFC1058 and RFC 1389) allows a router to

exchange routing information with other routers. The RIP Direction field controls

the sending and receiving of RIP packets. Select the RIP direction from Both/In

Only/Out Only/None. When set to Both or Out Only, the LAN-Cell will broadcast

its routing table periodically. When set to Both or In Only, it will incorporate the

RIP information that it receives; when set to None, it will not send any RIP packets

and will ignore any RIP packets received.

RIP Version The RIP Version field controls the format and the broadcasting method of the RIP

packets that the LAN-Cell sends (it recognizes both formats when receiving). RIP-

1 is universally supported but RIP-2 carries more information. RIP-1 is probably

adequate for most networks, unless you have an unusual network topology. Both

RIP-2B and RIP-2M sends the routing data in RIP-2 format; the difference being

that RIP-2B uses subnet broadcasting while RIP-2M uses multicasting.

Multicasting can reduce the load on non-router machines since they generally do

not listen to the RIP multicast address and so will not receive the RIP packets.

However, if one router uses multicasting, then all routers on your network must

use multicasting, also. By default, RIP direction is set to Both and the Version set

to RIP-1.
