DESCRIPTION
When you enable this, the NBG6604 gets its IP address from the network's DHCP server
(for example, your ISP). Users connected to the NBG6604 can now access the network
(i.e., the Internet if the IP address is given by the ISP).
The Web Configurator may no longer be accessible unless you know the IP address
assigned by the DHCP server to the NBG6604. You need to reset the NBG6604 to be
able to access the Web Configurator again (see
how to reset the NBG6604).
Also when you select this, you cannot enter an IP address for your NBG6604 in the field
below.
Click this if you want to specify the IP address of your NBG6604. Or if your ISP or network
administrator gave you a static IP address to access the network or the Internet.
Type the IP address in dotted decimal notation. The default setting is 192.168.1.2. If you
change the IP address you will have to log in again with the new IP address.
The subnet mask specifies the network number portion of an IP address. Your NBG6604
will automatically calculate the subnet mask based on the IP address that you assign.
Unless you are implementing subnetting, use the subnet mask computed by the
NBG6604.
Enter a Default Gateway's IP address (if your ISP or network administrator gave you one)
in this field.
Select Obtained From ISP if your ISP dynamically assigns DNS server information (and the
NBG6604's WAN IP address). The field to the right displays the (read-only) DNS server IP
address that the ISP assigns.
Select User-Defined if you have the IP address of a DNS server. Enter the DNS server's IP
address in the field to the right. If you chose User-Defined, but leave the IP address set to
0.0.0.0, User-Defined changes to None after you click Apply. If you set a second choice
to User-Defined, and enter the same IP address, the second User-Defined changes to
None after you click Apply.
Select None if you do not want to configure DNS servers. If you do not configure a DNS
server, you must know the IP address of a computer in order to access it.
Click Apply to save your changes to the NBG6604.
Click Cancel to reload the previous configuration for this screen.
