  • Page 90: Appendix B: Ip Concepts

    DSL-504T User’s Manual Appendix B: IP Concepts This appendix describes some basic IP concepts, the TCP/IP addressing scheme and shows how to assign IP Addresses. When setting up the Router, you must make sure it has a valid IP address. Even if you will not use the WAN port (ADSL port), you should, at the very least, make sure the Ethernet LAN port is assigned a valid IP address.
  • Page 91 DSL-504T User’s Manual App. B: IP Concepts IP Concepts (continued) Note: All network addresses outside of these ranges (Class D and E) are either reserved or set aside for experimental networks or multicasting. When an IP address’s host portion contains only zero(s), the address identifies a network and not a host.
  • Page 92 DSL-504T User’s Manual App. B: IP Concepts IP Concepts (continued) It is recommended that you choose private network IP Addresses from the above list. For more information on address assignment, refer to RFC 1597, Address Allocation for Private Internets and RFC 1466, Guidelines for Management of IP Address Space.
