You can disable the DMZ network in the Nokia IP45 v4.0 security platform.
Configuring OfficeMode Network
Typically, when remote access is implemented, the client connects using an Internet IP address
locally assigned by an ISP. This can cause the following issues:
±
When two clients on the same network (for example: WLAN) use the internal VPN server,
they will not be able to communicate with each other over the secure VPN link. This is
because their IP addresses are on the same subnet and so they attempt to communicate
directly over the local network.
±
Some networking protocols or resources might require the IP address of the client to be an
internal one.
The IP45 v4.0 supports OfficeMode network that enables to assign a unique IP address to a
remote client, thus resolving the above mentioned issues. This unique IP address from the
predefined OfficeMode network is assigned when the user connects and authenticates.
Note
OfficeMode requires SecureClient installed on the VPN clients. Secure Remote OfficeMode
is not supported.
Note
Customizing DHCP options is not supported in OfficeMode.
You can configure OfficeMode by using the GUI or command-line interface.
To configure the OfficeMode settings
1.
Choose Network from the main menu and select My Network.
The My Network page opens with information about the OfficeMode configuration.
Note
By default, OfficeMode is disabled.
2.
Click Edit next to the OfficeMode.
The Edit Network Settings page opens with configurable information for OfficeMode.

VLAN Support
A VLAN is a logical network behind your Nokia IP45. Computers in the same VLAN behave
like computers that are on the same physical network. Any traffic flows freely between these
without the intervention of the firewalls. Traffic between a VLAN and other networks flows as
per the security policy set by the user.
By configuring a VLAN, you can assign each division within your organization to different
VLANs regardless of their physical location. You can partition your network into several virtual
networks.
By default, traffic from VLAN to any other internal network is blocked. Hence, VLANs increase
security and reduce network congestion.
Nokia IP45 v4.0 supports tag-based Virtual LANs (VLANs).
Tag-Based VLANs
In a tag-based VLAN you use ports of one of the gateways as a 802.1Q VLAN trunk, connecting
Nokia IP45 to a VLAN switch. Each VLAN behind this trunk is assigned an identifying number
called VLAN ID or VLAN tag. Tagging ensures that traffic is directed to the correct VLAN.

All outgoing traffic from a tag-based VLAN contains the VLAN tag in the packet headers.
Incoming traffic to the VLAN must contain the VLAN tag as well, with out which, the packets
are dropped.
Configuring a VLAN
You can configure VLAN by using GUI and command-line interface.
The following sections provide information about how to configure a VLAN by using IP45 Web
