Manage Ip Address Reservation - NETGEAR C6300BD User Manual

The cable data gateway delivers the following parameters to any LAN device that requests
DHCP:
• An IP address from the range that you defined
• Subnet mask
• Gateway IP address (the cable data gateway's LAN IP address)
• DNS server IP address (the cable data gateway's LAN IP address)
You can specify the pool of IP addresses that the cable data gateway assigns by setting the
starting IP address and ending IP address. These addresses must be part of the same IP
address subnet as the cable data gateway's LAN IP address. Using the default addressing
scheme, define a range between 192.168.0.2 and 192.168.0.254, although you might want to
save part of the range for devices with fixed addresses.

To specify the pool of IP addresses that the cable data gateway assigns:
1. On your computer, launch an Internet browser such as Mozilla Firefox or Microsoft
Internet Explorer.
2. In the address field of your browser, enter http://routerlogin.net.
You are prompted to enter a user name and password.
3. Type admin for the user name and type your password.
If you did not yet personalize your password, type password for the password.
4. Click the OK button.
The BASIC Home screen displays.
5. Select ADVANCED > Setup > LAN Setup.
The LAN Setup screen displays.
6. Make sure that the Use Gateway as a DHCP Server check box is selected.
7. Specify the range of IP addresses:
• Starting IP Address. Specify the start of the range for the pool of IP addresses in the
same subnet as the cable data gateway.
• Ending IP Address. Specify the end of the range for the pool of IP addresses in the
same subnet as the cable data gateway.
For example, using the default addressing scheme, define a range between 192.168.0.2
and 192.168.0.254, although you might want to save part of the range for devices with
fixed addresses.
8. Click the Apply button.
Your settings are saved and the cable data gateway might restart.

Manage IP Address Reservation

When you specify a reserved IP address for a device on the LAN, that computer always
receives the same IP address each time it accesses the cable data gateway's DHCP server.
