Network Configuration
The Settings | Network Configuration page allows you to control the network configuration of the
device. First, the device operation mode must be defined to work as a bridge or router (IPv4 or IPv6).
The content of the window varies depending on your selection:
Figure 6 – Network Mode Options
Network mode – choose the device operating mode. Network settings will vary according to the
selected Network mode. The Bridge mode allows configuring device IPv4 and IPv6 LAN IP settings,
while the Router mode requires more parameters such as LAN network settings, WAN network
settings, LAN DHCP settings.
Bridge
When device is configured to operate in Bridge mode, only device LAN settings should be configured
on the Network configuration page:
Figure 7 – Bridge Mode Settings

User Guide LigoDLB Configuration
LigoWave Page 16
Enable management VLAN – enable a VLAN tagging for management traffic. Access to the AP for
management purposes can further be limited using VLAN tagging. By defining Management VLAN,
the device will only accept management frames that have the appropriate Management VLAN ID. All
other frames using any management protocol will be rejected.
Management VLAN ID – specify the VLAN ID [2-4095]. When device interfaces are configured with a
specific VLAN ID value, only management frames that matching configured VLAN ID will be accepted
by device.
When you specify a new management VLAN, your HTTP connection to the device will be
lost. For this reason, you should have a connection between your management station and
a port in the new management VLAN or connect to the new management VLAN through a
multi-VLAN router.
IPv4 Configuration
When assigning IP address make sure that the chosen IP address is unused and belongs
to the same IP subnet as your wired LAN, otherwise you will lose the connection to the
device from your current PC. If you enable the DHCP client, the browser will lose the
connection after saving, because the IP address assigned by the DHCP server is not
predictable.
IP method – specify IP reception method: IP addresses can either be retrieved from a DHCP server
or configured manually:
!Static – the IP address must be specified manually.
!Dynamic – the IP address for this device will be assigned from the DHCP server. If DHCP server
is not available, the device will try to get an IP. If has no success, it will use pre-configured
fallback IP address. The fallback IP settings can be changed to custom values.
IP address – specify IP address for device
Subnet mask – specify a subnet mask for device.
Default gateway – specify a gateway IP address for device.
DNS server – specify the Domain Naming Server.

IPv6 method – specify IPv6 reception method: IPv6 addresses can either be retrieved from a
DHCPv6 server or configured manually:
!Dynamic stateless IP – the DHCPv6 client only obtains network parameters other than IPv6
address
!Dynamic stateful IP – the DHCPv6 clients require IPv6 address together with other network
parameters (e.g. DNS Server, Domain Name, etc.).
!Static – the IPv6 address must be specified manually.
!IPv6 address – specify the IPv6 Address for the interface.
!IPv6 prefix length– enter the Prefix Length for the address.
!IPv6 default gateway – specify IPv6 address for default gateway.
!IPv6 DNS server – specify the Domain Naming Server IPv6 addresses.

Figure 9 – Router IPv4 Settings
Enable NAT – select to enable NAT (Network Address Translation), that functions by transforming the
private IP address of packets originating from hosts on your network so that they appear to be coming
from a single public IP address and by restoring the destination public IP address to the appropriate
private IP address for packets entering the private network, the multiple PCs on your network would
then appear as a single client to the WAN interface.
WAN Settings
WAN network settings include settings related to the WAN interface. The access type of the WAN
interface can be configured as: Static IP, Dynamic IP, PPPoE client.
