Lan Settings - D-Link DFL-600 Manual

LAN Settings

The LAN Settings allows you to view the current IP address and subnet
mask assigned to the DFL-600. It also allows you to change these settings.
If it is necessary to change the IP Address or Subnet Mask assigned to the
DFL-600, enter the new values in the appropriate fields, and press Apply to
make the changes current.
Note: if you assign an IP address and subnet mask to the DFL-600 that is
different from the IP address range assigned to the computers connected to
the LAN ports, you will no longer be able to connect to the DFL-600 from
any of these computers. In order to re-establish the connection between a
computer on the LAN side and the DFL-600, you will need to assign at least
one computer on the LAN side an IP address from the same range as the IP
address you assign to the DFL-600. As an alternative, you can configure the
DFL-600's DHCP server to give IP addresses from the new IP address range
that you will give the DFL-600 here.
As an example, if your LAN network is to be a 192.168.0.x network with a
subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, you might assign the DFL-600 an IP address
of 192.168.0.1 and configure the DFL-600's DHCP server to assign
addresses in the range between 192.168.0.2 to 192.168.0.100. The default
gateway setting for computers on the LAN side will be the DFL-600's IP
address − in this case, 192.168.0.1.
Saving all of this information to the DFL-600's flash RAM and restarting the
router will make this IP addressing scheme current. When you enable DHCP
