Chapter 24 LAN Setup

IP alias allows you to partition a physical network into different logical networks over the 
same Ethernet interface. The Prestige supports three logical LAN interfaces via its single 
physical Ethernet interface with the Prestige itself as the gateway for each LAN network.

Use menu 3.2 to configure the first network. Move the cursor to the Edit IP Alias field, press 
[SPACE BAR] to choose Yes and press [ENTER] to configure the second and third 
networks.

Press [ENTER] to open Menu 3.2.1 - IP Alias Setup, as shown next.
