Attribute
Meaning
LAN1 Network Interface
Configuration, DHCP state
If you select
Enabled
, the DHCP server automatically assigns the IP
configuration (IP address, subnet mask, and gateway IP address) and the
values of those individual parameters (above) are not used. The setting of
this DHCP state parameter is also viewable, but not settable, in the
Network Interface tab of the Home page.
In this tab, DHCP State is settable only if the
Network Accessibility
parameter in the IP tab is set to
Public
. This parameter is also settable in
the NAT tab of the Configuration web page, but only when NAT is
enabled.
If the
DHCP state
parameter is set to
Enabled
in the Configuration => IP
tab of the SM,
do not
check the
BootpClient
option for
Packet Filter Types
in
its Protocol Filtering tab, because doing so would block the DHCP request.
(Filters apply to all packets that leave the SM via its RF interface,
including those that the SM itself generates.) If you want to keep DHCP
enabled and avoid the blocking scenario, select the
Bootp Server
option
instead. This will result in responses being appropriately filtered and
discarded.
LAN1 Network Interface
Configuration, DNS IP Address
Canopy devices allow for configuration of a preferred and alternate DNS
server IP address either automatically or manually. Devices must set DNS
server IP address manually when DHCP is disabled for the management
interface of the device. DNS servers may be configured automatically from
the DHCP response when DHCP is enabled for the management interface
of the device. Optionally devices may be configured to set the DNS server
IP address manually when DHCP is enabled for the management interface.
The default DNS IP addresses are 0.0.0.0 when configured manually.
LAN1 Network Interface
Configuration, Preferred DNS
Server
The first DNS server used for DNS resolution.
LAN1 Network Interface
Configuration, Alternate DNS
Server
The second DNS server used for DNS resolution.
LAN1 Network Interface
Configuration, Domain Name
The operator‘s management domain name may be configured for DNS. The
domain name configuration can be used for configuration of the servers in
the operator‘s network. The default domain name is example.com, and is
only used if configured as such.
