CHAPTER 4 Network 4.1 Overview This chapter describes how you can configure the management IP address and VLAN settings of your NAP. The Internet Protocol (IP) address identifies a device on a network. Every networking device (including computers, servers, routers, printers, etc.) needs an IP address to communicate across the network. These networking devices are also known as hosts. Figure 16 IP Setup The figure above illustrates one possible setup of your NAP. The gateway IP address is 192.168.1.1 and the managed IP address of the NAP is 192.168.1.2 (default), but if the NAP is assigned an IP address by a DHCP server, the default (192.168.1.2) will not be used. The gateway and the NAP must belong in the same IP subnet to be able to communicate with each other. 4.1.1 What You Can Do in this Chapter • The IP Setting screen (Section 4.2 on page 26) configures the NAP's LAN IP address. • The VLAN screen (Section 4.3 on page 28) configures the NAP's VLAN settings. 4.2 IP Setting Use this screen to configure the IP address for your NAP. To access this screen, click Configuration > Network > IP Setting. NAP Series User's Guide 26

Overview
This chapter describes how you can configure the management IP address and VLAN settings of your
NAP.
The Internet Protocol (IP) address identifies a device on a network. Every networking device (including
computers, servers, routers, printers, etc.) needs an IP address to communicate across the network.
These networking devices are also known as hosts.
Figure 16
IP Setup
The figure above illustrates one possible setup of your NAP. The gateway IP address is 192.168.1.1 and
the managed IP address of the NAP is 192.168.1.2 (default), but if the NAP is assigned an IP address by a
DHCP server, the default (192.168.1.2) will not be used. The gateway and the NAP must belong in the
same IP subnet to be able to communicate with each other.
