CHAPTER 9 Network 9.1 Overview This chapter describes how you can configure the management IP address and VLAN settings of your Zyxel Device. 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 49 IP Setup The figure above illustrates one possible setup of your Zyxel Device. The gateway IP address is 192.168.1.1 and the managed IP address of the Zyxel Device is 192.168.1.2 (default), but if the Zyxel Device is assigned an IP address by a DHCP server, the default (192.168.1.2) will not be used. The gateway and the Zyxel Device must belong in the same IP subnet to be able to communicate with each other. 9.1.1 AP Controller Management This discusses using the Zyxel Device with an AP Controller. AP Controllers, such as the NXC, use Control And Provisioning of Wireless Access Points (CAPWAP) to push firmware and/or configurations to the APs that they manage. The following figure illustrates a wireless network managed by an AC. You (U) configure the AC (C), which then automatically updates the configurations of the managed APs (M1 ~ M4).
