Field
Description
Subnet Mask
Subnet Mask provided by the Network Administrator.
Default Gateway
Default Gateway address provided by the Network Administrator.
Primary DNS
Primary DNS address provided by the Network Administrator.
Secondary DNS
Secondary DNS address provided by the Network Administrator.
SNMP button
Opens the SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) Agent settings
form. Use this form to configure access to radio network settings through an
SNMP agent.
Login Password button
Configures the Login Password for the radio. The default password is
"password". Change this password and keep a record of it in a safe place, to
protect the radio from being reconfigured by unauthorized users.
DHCP (Dynamic Host Control Protocol) is a service provided by a server (typically a
router or a firewall) on a local area network. Devices on a network that supports DHCP
can request and receive an IP address from the DHCP server. RLX2 radios support DHCP;
by default, they attempt to obtain an IP address from a DHCP server.
If a DHCP server is not available, the radio will not be able to acquire an IP address
automatically. Therefore, assign an IP address, subnet mask and default gateway to the
radio so that it can communicate on the network.
Assign a Static (fixed or permanent) IP address to the radio to make it easier to identify
and configure the radio. Static IP addresses are particularly useful when configuring
radios to serve as Access Points, or for radios that must be accessible through a firewall.
A detailed discussion of TCP/IP networking is beyond the scope of this manual. Refer to
