    TCP/IP Parameters 3.3.1 IP Address and Subnet Mask Like houses on a street that share a common street name, the machines on a LAN share one common network number. Where you obtain your network number depends on your particular situation. If the ISP or your network administrator assigns you a block of registered IP addresses, follow their instructions in selecting the IP addresses and the subnet mask.

    servers are conveyed through IPCP negotiation. The Prestige supports the IPCP DNS server extensions through the DNS proxy feature. If the Primary and Secondary DNS Server fields in DHCP Setup are not specified, i.e., left as 0.0.0.0, the Prestige tells the DHCP clients that it itself is the DNS server. When a workstation sends a DNS query to the Prestige, the Prestige forwards the query to the real DNS server learned through IPCP and relays the response back to the workstation.

  • Page 48: Ip Alias

  • Page 54: Using Enet Encap Encapsulation

    Prestige 642R Series ADSL Router 3.12.3 Using ENET ENCAP Encapsulation In this case you can have either a static or dynamic IP. For a static IP you must fill in all the IP Address and ENET ENCAP Gateway fields as supplied by your ISP. However for a dynamic IP, the Prestige acts as a DHCP client on the WAN port and so the IP Address and ENET ENCAP Gateway fields are not applicable (N/A) as they are assigned to the Prestige by the DHCP server.

    3.14 Single User Account Typically, if there are multiple users on the LAN wanting to concurrently access the Internet, you will have to lease a block of legal, or globally unique, IP addresses from the ISP. The Single User Account (SUA) feature allows you to have the same benefits as having multiple legal addresses, but only pay for one IP address, thus saving significantly on the subscription fees.

    Please note that a server can support more than one service, e.g., a server can provide both FTP and DNS service, while another provides only web service. Also, since you need to specify the IP address of a server in the Prestige, a server must have a fixed IP address and not be a DHCP client whose IP address potentially changes each time it is powered on.
