LAN2 port (NIC 2)
I
The LAN2 port is an RJ-45 10/100Mbps auto-sensing Ethernet network port,
and its operation depends on how you are using the appliance:
• Proxy mode — The LAN2 port can only be used for a direct local
management connection. It cannot receive and transmit inbound and
outbound protocol traffic.
You might use this port if you cannot achieve a remote management
connection through the LAN1 port, because of these reasons:
• Transparency mode — The LAN2 port is used (in conjunction with the
LAN1 port) to connect the appliance to your existing network. It receives
and transmits the same type of traffic as the LAN1 port.
See Step 4 on page 29
The LAN2 port has a default IP address of 10.1.2.108 (subnet mask
255.255.255.0). When you configure the appliance, you can do the following:
• Add new IP addresses that are valid for your network.
• Modify or disable the default IP address.
• Delete the default IP address so that it cannot be used.
• Disable the port so that it cannot be used.

– The LAN1 port's IP address belongs to a different subnet than your
remote computer.
– You have forgotten the LAN1 port's IP address that you set, and
have disabled the default IP address of 10.1.1.108 for that port.
for connection information.
IMPORTANT: If you are using transparency mode, do not disable the
LAN2 port.
For previous versions of the WebShield appliance, the LAN2 port was
known as the management port, so you might see such references in
existing documentation.
