Cisco RV120W Administration Guide
To configure the IP address of the Cisco RV120W:
Choose Networking > LAN (Local Network) > IPv4 LAN (Local Network).
Enter this information:
IP Address
Subnet mask
Click Save.
After changing the Cisco RV120W's LAN IP address, your PC is no longer
connected to the Cisco RV120W.
To reconnect your PC to the Cisco RV120W:
• If DHCP is configured on the Cisco RV120W, release and renew your PC's IP
address.
• If DHCP is not configured on the Cisco RV120W, manually assign an IP
address to your PC. The address must be on the same subnet as the Cisco
RV120W. For example, if you change the Cisco RV120W's IP address to
10.0.0. 1 , assign your PC an IP address in the range of 10.0.0.2 to 10.0.0.254.
Open a new browser window and enter the new IP address of the Cisco RV120W
to reconnect.

Configuring DHCP

By default, the Cisco RV120W functions as a DHCP server to the hosts on the
Wireless LAN (WLAN) or LAN network and assigns IP and DNS server addresses.
With DHCP enabled, the firewall's IP address serves as the gateway address to
your LAN. The PCs in the LAN are assigned IP addresses from a pool of
addresses. Each address is tested before it is assigned to avoid duplicate
addresses on the LAN.
Enter the LAN IP address of the RV120W.
Make sure the address is not in use by another
device on the same network. The default IP
address is 192. 1 68. 1 . 1 .
Choose the subnet mask for the new IP address
from the drop-down menu. The default subnet is
255.255.255.0.
