    Configuration with Advanced Setup Configuring the DHCP server The router has a DHCP Server, whose factory setting is active. As a result, the IP addresses of the PC's are automatically assigned by the router. If you want to assign static IP addresses for the PCs, you will have to deactivate the DHCP server. If the router's DHCP server is active, configure the network settings of your PC's so that the Obtain an IP address automatically option is checked.
  • Page 80 Configuration with Advanced Setup IP Pool Range IP Pool Range enter the range of IP addresses which the router should use for auto- matically assigning IP addresses to the PC's. Enter the first and last addresses. The first three fields of the first and last IP address always have the first three fields of the router's IP address as their default setting because the subnet mask is always 255.255.255.x.

    Configuration with Advanced Setup Filtering Internet access You can use the Filter menu to make settings that will enhance the security of your net- work. You can protect your LAN against ping attacks from the Internet (see below), restrict Internet access to selected PC's and for selected services (see below), and restrict access by members of your LAN to selected websites (see page 82).

  • Page 85: Restricting Access To Certain Internet Domains And Sites

    Configuration with Advanced Setup Restricting access to certain Internet domains and sites You can prevent members of your LAN accessing certain Internet domains and sites by defining a filter for URL's. Filtering a URL means that the specified URL and all of the URL's downstream of it are blocked for access.

  • Page 86: Opening The Firewall For Selected Pc's (Dmz)

    Configuration with Advanced Setup Opening the firewall for selected PC's (DMZ) PC's inside the LAN cannot be accessed from the Internet by default. The router protects the LAN by its Firewall. Some applications do not work properly behind a firewall because they require unrestricted data flow in both directions.
