LAN Setup
This chapter describes how to configure LAN settings.
4.1  LAN Overview 
A Local Area Network (LAN) is a shared communication system to which many computers 
are attached. A LAN is a computer network limited to the immediate area, usually the same 
building or floor of a building. The LAN screens can help you configure a LAN DHCP server 
and manage IP addresses.  
See 
 to configure the LAN screens. 
4.1.1  
LANs, WANs and the Prestige
The actual physical connection determines whether the Prestige ports are LAN or WAN ports. 
There are two separate IP networks, one inside the LAN network and the other outside the 
WAN network as shown next.
