Node ID
The only use of the node ID parameter when operating in bridge mode is for
setting the default IP address of the bridge interface when one has not been
explicitly set or acquired via DHCP.
The node ID assigned to an EL-500 affects the IP address spaces assigned to each of the EL-
500’s virtual AP client access interfaces when it uses implicit addressing in routed mode. If
multiple EL-500s are connected to the same LAN, it is recommended that they be assigned
different node IDs unless they have the NAT option enabled or use the explicit addressing
scheme.
CLI
The node ID is set with the ‘id.node’ parameter in the ‘sys’ interface as shown below.
>
use sys
sys>
set id.node=107
Web GUI
The node ID can be set via the web interface using the “System” tab on the “System
Parameters” page as shown in Figure 25.
