IPv4 Status

The IPv4 Status screen displays the current IP address, subnet and other IP related information assigned to the
device. It also allows renewing the IP address if the profile is using DHCP to obtain the IP information. Select
Renew to initiate the IP address renewal process. The IPv4 Status screen updates automatically when the IP
address changes.
To open the lPv4 Status screen, select lPv4 Status in the Wireless Status screen.

IP Type Displays the IP address assignment method used for the current profile:
DHCP or Static. If the IP Type is DHCP, the IP Address and other information shown is obtained from the
DHCP server. In this case, the DHCP Server address and the Lease information is also shown. If the IP
Type is Static, the IP Address and other information shown are those that were entered in the profile.
IP Address Displays the device's IP address. The Internet is a collection of networks with users that communicate
with each other. Each communication carries the address of the source and destination networks and the
particular machine within the network associated with the user or host computer at each end. This
address is called the IP address. Each node on the IP network must be assigned a unique IP address
that is made up of a network identifier and a host identifier. The IP address is shown in dotted-decimal
notation with the decimal value of each octet separated by a period, for example, 192.168.7.27.
Subnet Displays the device's subnet mask. Most TCP/IP networks use subnets to manage routed IP addresses.
All IP addresses have a network part and a host part. The network part specifies a physical network. The
host part specifies a host on that physical network. The subnet mask allows a network administrator to
use some of the bits that are normally used to specify the host to instead specify physical sub-networks
within an organization. This helps organize and simplify routing between physical networks.
Gateway Displays the gateway address. A gateway forwards IP packets to and from a remote destination.
DCHP Server Displays the IP address of the DHCP server.
