PremierWave® XN Intelligent Gateway User Guide 38
6: Network Settings
The Network Settings show the status of the Ethernet and WLAN device interface/link and lets you
configure the settings on the device. Interface settings are related to the configuration of the IP
and related protocols. Link settings are related to the physical link connection, which carries the IP
traffic.
The PremierWave XN device server contains two network interfaces. Both interfaces will be
activated and controlled by the bridging subsystem when bridging is enabled.The Ethernet
interface is called Network 1 or eth0, and the WLAN interface is called Network 2 or wlan0
Notes:.
Some settings require a reboot to take effect. These settings are noted below.
Wait a minimum of 25-30 seconds after rebooting the unit before attempting to make
any subsequent connections.
