System Configuration Features - Netopia R7100-C User Reference Manual

System configuration features
The Netopia R7100 SDSL Router's default settings may be all you need to configure your Netopia R7100. Some
users, however, require advanced settings or prefer manual control over the default selections. For these users,
the Netopia R7100 provides system configuration options.
To help you determine whether you need to use the system configuration options, review the following
requirements. If you have one or more of these needs, use the system configuration options described in later
chapters.
System configuration of dynamic IP address distribution through DHCP, MacIP, or BootP
Greater network security through the use of filters
System configuration of AppleTalk LAN settings
System configuration of connections to AppleTalk networks through the Internet or any IP network, using
AURP (AppleTalk "tunneling")
System configuration of connection profiles
To access the system configuration screens, select System Configuration in the Main Menu, then press
Return.
The System Configuration menu screen appears:
Return/Enter to configure Networking Protocols (such as TCP/IP).
Use this screen if you want options beyond Easy Setup.
