Factory Ethernet Defaults

The Ethernet parameters of the ZyAIR are preset in the factory with the following values:
IP address of 192.168.1.11
Subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 (24 bits)
These parameters should work for the majority of installations.

3.6.1 IP Address and Subnet Mask

Similar to the way houses on a street share a common street name, so too do computers on a LAN share
one common network number.
Where you obtain your network number depends on your particular situation. If the ISP or your network
administrator assigns you a block of registered IP addresses, follow their instructions in selecting the IP
addresses and the subnet mask.
If the ISP did not explicitly give you an IP network number, then most likely you have a single user
account and the ISP will assign you a dynamic IP address when the connection is established. The Internet
Assigned Number Authority (IANA) reserved this block of addresses specifically for private use; please do
not use any other number unless you are told otherwise. Let's say you select 192.168.1.0 as the network
number; which covers 254 individual addresses, from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.254 (zero and 255 are
reserved). In other words, the first three numbers specify the network number while the last number
identifies an individual computer on that network.
Once you have decided on the network number, pick an IP address that is easy to remember, for instance,
192.168.1.11, for your ZyAIR, but make sure that no other device on your network is using that IP address.
The subnet mask specifies the network number portion of an IP address.
