DESCRIPTION
Enter the LAN IP address you want to assign to your Device in dotted decimal notation,
for example, 192.168.1.1 (factory default).
Type the subnet mask of your network in dotted decimal notation, for example
255.255.255.0 (factory default). Your Device automatically computes the subnet mask
based on the IP address you enter, so do not change this field unless you are instructed
to do so.
RIP (Routing Information Protocol) allows a router to exchange routing information with
other routers. Select the RIP version from RIP-1 and RIP2-B/RIP2-M.
Use this field to control how much routing information the Device sends and receives on
the subnet. Select the RIP Direction from None, Both, IN Only and OUT Only.
IGMP (Internet Group Multicast Protocol) is a network-layer protocol used to establish
membership in a multicast group. The Device supports IGMP v1/IGMP v2/IGMP v3.
Select None to disable it.
Select Enabled to activate IGMP Snooping. This allows the Device to passively learn
memberships in multicast groups. Otherwise, select Disabled to deactivate it.
Select Enable to have your Device assign IP addresses, an IP default gateway and DNS
servers to LAN computers and other devices that are DHCP clients.
If you select Disable, you need to manually configure the IP addresses of the
computers and other devices on your LAN.
When DHCP is used, the following fields need to be set.
This field specifies the first of the contiguous addresses in the IP address pool.
This field specifies the size, or count of the IP address pool.
The Device supports DNS proxy by default. The Device sends out its own LAN IP
address to the DHCP clients as the first DNS server address. DHCP clients use this first
DNS server to send domain-name queries to the Device. The Device sends a response
directly if it has a record of the domain-name to IP address mapping. If it does not, the
Device queries an outside DNS server and relays the response to the DHCP client.
Select From ISP if your ISP dynamically assigns DNS server information (and the
Device's WAN IP address).
Select DNS Proxy to have the DHCP clients use the Device's own LAN IP address. The
Device works as a DNS relay.
Select User-Defined if you have the IP address of a DNS server. Enter the DNS
server's IP address in the field to the right.
Select None to not configure extra DNS servers.
Click Apply to save your changes.
Click Cancel to restore your previously saved settings.
