Chapter 7 Lan; Lan Overview; Ip Pool Setup; System Dns Servers - ZyXEL Communications P-334U User Manual

This chapter describes how to configure LAN settings.

7.1 LAN Overview

Local Area Network (LAN) is a shared communication system to which many computers are
attached. The LAN screens can help you configure a LAN DHCP server, manage IP addresses,
and partition your physical network into logical networks.

7.1.1 IP Pool Setup

The ZyXEL Device is pre-configured with a pool of 32 IP addresses starting from
192.168.1.33 to 192.168.1.64. This configuration leaves 31 IP addresses (excluding the
ZyXEL Device itself) in the lower range for other server computers, for instance, servers for
mail, FTP, TFTP, web, etc., that you may have.

7.1.2 System DNS Servers

Refer to the IP Address and Subnet Mask section in the Connection Wizard chapter.

7.2 LAN TCP/IP

The ZyXEL Device has built-in DHCP server capability that assigns IP addresses and DNS
servers to systems that support DHCP client capability.

7.2.1 Factory LAN Defaults

The LAN parameters of the ZyXEL Device are preset in the factory with the following values:
• IP address of 192.168.1.1 with subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 (24 bits)
• DHCP server enabled with 32 client IP addresses starting from 192.168.1.33.
These parameters should work for the majority of installations. If your ISP gives you explicit
DNS server address(es), read the embedded web configurator help regarding what fields need
to be configured.
