Step 4: Configure The Lan Interface; Enable Subnet1 - Motorola WS2000 System Reference Manual

NOTE: The WS2000 switch is shipped with an open default SNMP configuration:
Community: public, OID: 1.3.6.1, Access: Read-only
Community: private, OID: 1.3.6.1, Access: Read-write

Step 4: Configure the LAN Interface

The first step of network configuration process is to figure out the topology of the LAN. The WS2000
Wireless Switch allows the administrator to enable and configure six different subnets. The administrator
can assign an IP address, port associations, and DHCP settings for each subnet.

Enable Subnet1

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 six supported

left of Subnet1
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.
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.
