Advanced Settings
LAN configuration
With the help of the LAN configuration you can change the preset values for the com-
puter name and the private IP address for your Cisco BWX360 WiMAX Outdoor
Modem and configure the integrated DHCP server.
Open the Advanced Settings tab and select Local Network.
The preset IP address is 192.168.2.1. This is the private IP address of the
Cisco BWX360 WiMAX Outdoor Modem. This is the address under which the device
can be reached in the local network. It can be freely assigned from the block of avail-
able addresses. The IP address under which the Cisco BWX360 WiMAX Outdoor
Modem can be reached from outside is assigned by the Internet service provider. The
default Subnet mask for the local network administered by the Cisco BWX360 WiMAX
Outdoor Modem is 255.255.255.0.
Please note which subnet mask is set when assigning the IP address. The preset sub-
net mask defines the first three parts of the IP address which must be identical for all
network components (including routers).
We recommend that you use an address from a block that is reserved for private use.
This address block is 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.255.254.
Configuring the DHCP server
The Cisco BWX360 WiMAX Outdoor Modem has a DHCP server for which the factory
setting is active. Consequently, the IP addresses of the PCs are automatically assigned
by the Cisco BWX360 WiMAX Outdoor Modem.
If the DHCP server for the Cisco BWX360 WiMAX Outdoor Modem
is activated, you can configure the network setting on the PC so that
the option Obtain an IP address automatically is set up.
If you deactivate the DHCP server, you will have to assign a static IP
address for the PCs that use the network settings.
For more information see the document "Configuring the local area net-
work" on the CD.
If the DHCP server is active, you can define a Lease time. The lease time indicates
how long the client may use the allocated IP configuration.
Note:
If you select Never expires, the IP addresses are never changed. Activate this
option if you want to make NAT or firewall settings using the IP addresses of the
PCs; otherwise you have to assign static IP addresses to these PCs.
Define the range of IP addresses the Cisco BWX360 WiMAX Outdoor Modem
should use to automatically assign IP addresses to the PCs. Define the Start IP and
the End IP.
