User Manual / MBR1200B
The router will provide the device the same IP address every time. DHCP reservations are helpful for server
computers on the local network that are hosting applications such as Web and FTP. Servers on your network
should either use a static IP address or a reservation.
While you have the option to manually input the information to reserve an IP address (Hostname, Hardware
Addr, IP Addr), it is much simpler to select a device under the Active Leases section and click "Reserve." The
selected device's information will automatically be added under Reservations.
LOCAL IP NETWORKS
Local IP Networks displays the following information for each network:
• Network Name and IP address/Netmask (along the top bar)
• Multicast Proxy (Enabled/Disabled)
• DHCP Server (Enabled/Disabled)
• Schedule (Enabled/Disabled – See the Schedule tab in the
Local Network Editor)
• VRRP Failover State (Disabled, Backup, or Master)
• IPv4 Routing Mode (NAT, Standard)
• IPv6 Addressing Mode (SLAAC Only, SLAAC with DHCP, Disable
SLAAC and DHCP)
• Access Control (Admin Access, UPnP Gateway, LAN Isolation)
• Attached Interfaces (Ethernet ports, WiFi, VLAN)
Click Add to configure a new network, Remove to delete a
network, or select an existing network and click Edit to view configuration options.
General Settings
Enabled: The network can be manually disabled or in some specific
situations may be automatically disabled to work with certain
types of modems.
Name: The "name" property primarily helps to identify this
network during other administration tasks.
Hostname: The hostname is the DNS name associated with the
router's local area network IP address.
IPv4 Settings
IP Address: This is the address used by the router for local area
network communication. Changes to this parameter may require a
restart to computers on this network.
Netmask: The netmask controls how many IP addresses can be
used in this network. The default value is usually acceptable for
most situations.
IPv4 Routing Mode: Each network can use a unique routing mode to connect to the Internet. The default of
NAT is desirable in most configurations.
• NAT: Network Address Translation hides private IP addresses behind the router's IP address.
• Standard: Without NAT exposes the subnet addresses which requires them to be externally routable.
IPv6 Settings
IPv6 Address Source: The Address source has three settings. The default of Delegated is desirable in most
configurations.
