Router – LAN Settings

Note: This guide relates to the BCM50a/ba and BCM50e/be models only.

Note: Although the BCM50a/ba models will not be supplied with BCM 6.0, it is

possible to upgrade the variants of these models to BCM 6.0, if they were originally supplied with BCM50 R2 or BCM50 R3 software.

Note: The BCM50 Integrated Router is almost identical to the Business Secure Router (BSR) models. BCM50a/ba routers are based on the BSR252 and BCM50e/be routers are based on the BSR222.

Note: The DHCP range to be issued to DHCP clients should be on the same network range as the Router Card LAN IP Address. For example, if the Router Card LAN IP Address is 192.168.110.1, the DHCP start address should be somewhere in the 192.168.110.x range (following subnet rules).

LAN Settings

Overview

This document is designed to guide you through the setup of the BCM50 Integrated Router LAN Settings. The LAN settings define the BCM50 Integrated Router Card LAN IP Address, DHCP mode, and additional features such as IP Alias and Multicast.

LAN IP Address

It will be necessary to define the IP address of the BCM50 Integrated Router card. The Router Card LAN IP address will generally be the default gateway for network devices (e.g. PCs, IP Phones) connected to the BCM50 Integrated LAN interfaces.

DHCP

The BCM50 Integrated Router can provide DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) service to network clients. DHCP allows a network administrator to supervise and distribute IP addresses – and other network settings such as default gateways and DNS servers - from a central location. This service dynamically assigns IP addresses to network computers and IP telephones, so you do not need to manually assign an IP address. It can also automatically assign a new IP address if a device connects to a different place in the network.

There should be only one DHCP Server on a network. It is recommended that if enabling DHCP, the BCM50 Router be the only DHCP Server on the network on which it is to be installed.

Router – LAN Settings

Note: It is possible to configure the DHCP service on the main module instead of via the router itself. DHCP must be disabled on the router to be

able configure DHCP on the main module. Refer to the DHCP Guide for more information.

DHCP & BCM50 VLANs

The BCM main unit supports VLAN configuration, useful for segregating IP phone network traffic from regular data traffic for example. Each configured VLAN can have its own DHCP range assigned.

If VLAN configuration is required for the network using the BCM, then the BCM should be configured for this and the BCM should be used as the DHCP server, as the router card does not support VLAN configuration. Refer to the VLANs and DHCP Guides for information on how to perform this configuration.

Static DHCP

If certain PCs/devices on the network (e.g. a FTP Server) require a specific IP address, this can be defined in the Static DHCP section.

IP Alias

IP Alias allows you to partition a physical network into different logical networks over the same Ethernet interface. The BCM50 Integrated Router supports three logical LAN interfaces via its single physical Ethernet interface with the BCM50 Integrated Router itself as the gateway for each LAN network.

IP Alias can be used to create separate networks that are physically connected to the same LAN interface. For example, two departments can be logically separated but connected by the same physical infrastructure. The diagram below describes a possible usage of IP Alias.

Router – LAN Settings

For the Sales network the default gateway will be 20.20.20.1 and for the Technical network the default gateway will be 30.30.30.1

Default Settings

The default LAN settings for the BCM50 Integrated Router are as follows:

 LAN IP Address: 192.168.1.1  Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0  DHCP Server: Enabled

o Start Pool IP Address:192.168.1.2 o Pool size: 126

BCM50 Integrated Router and the BCM50 Customer LAN IP Address

A distinction should be made between the LAN Router Card IP Address and the BCM50 Customer LAN IP Address, notably:

 The BCM50 Customer LAN IP Address is the address that Element

Manager will connect to, and will also be the S1 Terminal address that IP Phones connect to.

 The Router Card LAN IP Address is the address entered in Internet

Explorer for configuration via the Web Router GUI, and will be the default gateway for devices on the network including the BCM50 Integrated Router itself.

For information concerning the configuration of the BCM50 LAN Customer LAN IP address, refer to the BCM50 System Start Up Guide.
