Address Reservation - NETGEAR D6300 User Manual

The modem router delivers the following parameters to any LAN device that requests DHCP:
• An IP address from the range that you have defined
• Subnet mask
• Gateway IP address (the modem router's LAN IP address)
• DNS server IP address (the modem router's LAN IP address)
To use another device on your network as the DHCP server, or to manually configure the
network settings of all of your computers, clear the Use Router as DHCP Server check box
and click Apply. Otherwise, leave this check box selected. If this service is not enabled and
no other DHCP server is available on your network, you need to set your computers' IP
addresses manually or they are not able to access the modem router.

Address Reservation

When you specify a reserved IP address for a computer on the LAN, that computer always
receives the same IP address each time it accesses the modem router's DHCP server.
Reserved IP addresses should be assigned to computers or servers that require permanent
IP settings.
To reserve an IP address:

1. Launch a web browser from a computer or WiFi device that is connected to the network.
2. Enter http://www.routerlogin.net.
A login window opens.
3. Enter the modem router user name and password.
The user name is admin. The default password is password. The user name and
password are case-sensitive.
The BASIC Home page displays.
4. Select ADVANCED > Setup > LAN Setup.
The LAN Setup page displays.
5. In the Address Reservation section of the page, click the Add button.
The Address Reservation page displays.
6. In the IP Address field, type the IP address to assign to the computer or server. (Choose an
IP address from the modem router's LAN subnet, such as 192.168.0.x.)
7. Type the MAC address of the computer or server.
Tip: If the computer is already on your network, you can copy its MAC
address from the Attached Devices screen and paste it here.
8. Click Apply to enter the reserved address into the table.
