7.5 The IP Alias Screen

IP alias allows you to partition a physical network into different logical networks
over the same Ethernet interface. The ZyXEL Device supports three logical LAN
interfaces via its single physical Ethernet interface with the ZyXEL Device itself as
the gateway for each LAN network.

When you use IP alias, you can also configure firewall rules to control access
between the LAN's logical networks (subnets).

Note: Make sure that the subnets of the logical networks do not overlap.

#

This is the index number of the static IP table entry (row).

Status

This field displays whether the client is connected to the ZyXEL Device.

Host Name

This field displays the computer host name.

IP Address

This field displays the IP address relative to the # field listed above.

MAC Address

The MAC (Media Access Control) or Ethernet address on a LAN (Local
Area Network) is unique to your computer (six pairs of hexadecimal
notation).

A network interface card such as an Ethernet adapter has a hardwired
address that is assigned at the factory. This address follows an industry
standard that ensures no other adapter has a similar address.

Reserve

Select the check box in the heading row to automatically select all
check boxes or select the check box(es) in each entry to have the
ZyXEL Device always assign the selected entry(ies)’s IP address(es) to
the corresponding MAC address(es) (and host name(s)). You can select
up to 10 entries in this table.

Modify

Click the modify icon to have the IP address field editable and change
it.

Apply

Cancel
