You can configure LAN and LON options from the IzoT Router Network Configuration page. To open the IzoT Router Network Configuration page, follow the procedure in Configuring the IzoT Router. The following page appears. 

To return to this page from other IzoT Router configuration pages, click Network at the top of the other pages.

You can configure the LAN and LON interfaces to use a dynamic or static IP address. The settings are independent. The default for the LAN interface is to use a dynamic IP address, assigned by a DHCP server for the subnet where the IzoT Router is installed. The default for the LON interface is to use a static IP address and to setup the IzoT Router as the DHCP server for the LonTalk/IP devices on the LON channel.

To configure the IzoT Router to use a static IP address for the LAN or LON interfaces, follow these steps:

  1. Open the IzoT Router Network Configuration Web page.

  2. For the LAN interface, change the Ethernet Interface to Static Address.

  3. For the LON interface, change the LonTalk Interface to Static Address.

  4. For the selected interface, change Address and Network Mask to the static IP address settings.

  5. Click Submit.

  6. Click System at the top of the Network Configuration Web page and then click Reboot to restart the IzoT Router.
