WS2000 Wireless Switch System Reference Guide

3.1

Enabling Subnets for the LAN Interface

Subnets are used to maximize the available network addresses and to logically separate the existing

organizational network into smaller related networks.

The WS 2000 Wireless Switch allows administrators to enable and configure four different subnets for each

switch. Administrators can assign IP addresses, port associations, DHCP settings, and security settings for

each subnet. This System Reference Guide provides two case studies that demonstrate how requirements

for network access and capabilities drive the decisions of how to configure the subnets.

3.1.1

Defining Subnets

Select

LAN

under the

Network Configuration

group from the left menu. Use the LAN configuration screen

to view a summary of physical-port addresses and Wireless LANs (WLANs) associated with the four

supported subnets, and to enable or disable each configured subnet.

Check the box to the left of a subnet to enable it. Up to four subnets can be enabled to use the wired and/

or wireless connections of the switch-managed LAN. Enable multiple subnets to divide the

communications of different business areas or operations. Each enabled subnet shows up in the directory

tree in the left column of the configuration screens. Consider disabling a previously configured subnet if

its assigned ports are no longer in use, or to consolidate the LAN’s communications on fewer subnets.

2. Click

Apply

to save changes. All “unapplied” changes are lost when the administrator moves to a new

screen.

The rest of the information on this screen is summary information. It is collected from other screens (such as

the subnet configuration screens) where the administrator can set the data.

Network

(subnet) name is a descriptive string that should describe the subnet’s function. The WS

2000 Network Management System uses subnet names throughout the configurations screens.
