8: Advanced LAN Configuration
Overview
These screens and settings are provided to deal with non-standard situations, or to provide additional
options for advanced users.
Existing DHCP Server
If your LAN already has a DHCP Server, and you wish to continue using it, the following configuration
is required.
The DHCP Server function in the Load Balancer must be
disabled
. This setting is on the
LAN &
DHCP
screen.
Your DHCP Server must be configured to provide the Load Balancer's LAN IP address as the
"Default Gateway".
Your DHCP Server must provide correct DNS addresses to the PCs.
Routing
This section is only relevant if your LAN has other Routers or Gateways.
If you don't have other Routers or Gateways on your LAN, you can ignore the
Static Routing
page completely.
If your LAN has other Gateways and Routers, you must configure the Static Routing screen as
described below. You also need to configure the other Routers.

Note:
If there is an entry or entries in the Routing table with an Index of zero ( 0 ), these are System entries.
You can not modify or delete these entries.
Settings – Static Routing
Entry Index
If adding a new entry, ignore this field.
To edit an existing entry, select it from the list, and click the "Select" button.
The screen will then update with the data for the selected entry.
If the Index is 0, this is a System entry which you can neither delete nor
modify.
Network
Address
The network address of the remote LAN segment. For standard class "C" LANs,
the network address is the first 3 fields of the Destination IP Address. The 4th
(last) field can be left at 0.
Netmask
The Network Mask for the remote LAN segment. For class "C" networks, the
default mask is 255.255.255.0
Gateway
The IP Address of the Gateway or Router which the Load Balancer must use to
communicate with the destination above. (NOT the router attached to the remote
segment.)
Interface
Select the correct interface, usually "LAN". The "WAN" interface is only available
if NAT (Network Address Translation) is disabled.
Metric
The number of "hops" (routers) to pass through to reach the remote LAN
segment. The shortest path will be used.
Configuring Other Routers on your LAN
All traffic for devices not on the local LAN must be forwarded to the Load Balancer, so that they can
be forwarded to the Internet. This is done by configuring other Routers to use the Load Balancer as
the
Default Route
or
Default Gateway
, as illustrated by the example below.
Static Routing - Example
Router B
(192.168.2.90)
(192.168.3.70)
Router A
Segment 0
Segment 2
Segment 1
(192.168.1.xx)
(192.168.2.xx)
(192.168.1.100)
(192.168.1.1)
(192.168.3.xx)
