DESCRIPTION
Click this to deploy the Router as an access point in the network.
When you enable this, the Router gets its IP address from the network's DHCP server (for
example, your ISP). Users connected to the Router can now access the network (i.e., the
Internet if the IP address is given by the ISP).
The Web Configurator may no longer be accessible unless you know the IP address assigned
by the DHCP server to the Router. You need to reset the Router to be able to access the Web
Configurator again (see Section 25.7 on page 184
Also when you select this, you cannot enter an IP address for your Router in the field below.
Click this if you want to specify the IP address of your Router. Or if your ISP or network
administrator gave you a static IP address to access the network or the Internet.
Type the IP address in dotted decimal notation. The default setting is 192.168.1.2. If you
change the IP address you will have to log in again with the new IP address.
The subnet mask specifies the network number portion of an IP address. Your Router will
automatically calculate the subnet mask based on the IP address that you assign. Unless
you are implementing subnetting, use the subnet mask computed by the Router.
Enter a Gateway IP Address (if your ISP or network administrator gave you one) in this
field.
Select From ISP if your ISP dynamically assigns DNS server information (and the Router's
WAN IP address). The field to the right displays the (read-only) DNS server IP address that
the ISP assigns.
Select User-Defined if you have the IP address of a DNS server. Enter the DNS server's IP
address in the field to the right. If you chose User-Defined, but leave the IP address set to
0.0.0.0, User-Defined changes to None after you click Apply. If you set a second choice to
User-Defined, and enter the same IP address, the second User-Defined changes to None
after you click Apply.
Select None if you do not want to configure DNS servers. If you do not configure a DNS
server, you must know the IP address of a computer in order to access it.
Click Apply to save your changes to the Router.
Click Reset to reload the previous configuration for this screen.
