AirLive RS-2500 User’s Manual
The RS-2500 allows the Administrator to set Interface addresses of the LAN network, LAN
network group, WAN network, WAN network group, DMZ and DMZ group.
An IP address in the Address Table can be an address of a computer or a sub network. The
Administrator can assign an easily recognized name to an IP address. Based on the
network it belongs to, an IP address can be an LAN IP address, WAN IP address or DMZ IP
address. If the Administrator needs to create a control policy for packets of different IP
addresses, he can first add a new group in the LAN Group or the WAN Group and assign
those IP addresses into the newly created group. Using group addresses can greatly
simplify the process of building control policies.
With easily recognized names of IP addresses and names of address
groups shown in the address table, the Administrator can use these
names as the source address or destination address of control
policies. The address table should be setup before creating control
policies, so that the Administrator can pick the names of correct IP
addresses from the address table when setting up control policies.
