For more detailed information on Ethernet zones, see the following sections.
Ethernet Zones Overview
Navigate to "LAN > Ethernet Zones" to display the list of Ethernet zones that are cur-
rently defined on the system in the item list bar.
In the expanded view, the first column of the table displays the "Name" of the Ethernet
zone. The name of the Ethernet zone contains the name of the selected physical net-
work interface, for example Zone-eth2. Furthermore, the status ( "Enabled" or not) of
the zone and its "IP Address" are displayed. The buttons in the last column allow you
to view and adjust the settings for an existing Ethernet zone, create a new zone based
on a copy of an existing Ethernet zone or delete a zone from the system.
For further information, see Chapter 3.2, "Icons and Buttons", on page 21.
Ethernet Zones Settings
The "Ethernet Zones" settings allow you to customize the settings of the available
Ethernet zones.
Under "LAN > Ethernet Zones" , you can add a new or edit an existing Ethernet zone.
The "Ethernet Zone" settings allow you to configure the following elements:
Field Description
"On" / "Off" A slider switch indicates whether the Ethernet zone is active ( "On" ) or inactive
( "Off" ). By clicking the slider switch, you can toggle the state of the Ethernet
zone.
On the "General" tab:
Field Description
"Name" Enter a name for the Ethernet zone.
"IP Address/Netmask" Enter the IP address and netmask in CIDR notation (IP address followed by a
slash »/« and the number of bits set in the subnet mask, for example
192.168.50.1/24). Multiple IP addresses from the same or other networks
are possible. You can only enter an IP address which has not already been
configured on a different Ethernet zone, WLAN or VLAN.
"Network Interfaces" Assign as many unallocated physical network interfaces to the zone as you like.
"Bridged" This checkbox indicates whether the zone is bridged. The checkbox is cleared
by default.
To set up a bridge, deactivate the first zone of the bridge. Select the "Bridged"
checkbox and save the settings. Then, open the settings of the second zone of
the bridge. Select the "Bridged" checkbox und the first zone as "Bridge Target" .
When you save the settings, the first zone is automatically reactivated.
