Lan Settings Menu - SMC Networks SMCD3GN3 Administrator User Manual

LAN Settings Menu

IP addresses are close to being used up and thus very hard to get. One solution to this
problem is "private" IP addresses. Private IP addresses are ranges of IP addresses set
aside expressly for use by a company or other entity internally. Private IP addresses are
non-routable and, therefore, cannot be used to connect directly to the Internet.
Some of the advantages of private IP addresses include:
Increased security, since private IP addresses are not routable across the Internet
You conserve the world-wide pool of IP addresses
You do not have to register or pay for these IP addresses in any way
The LAN Settings menu lets you configure private LAN IP settings and private IP address
pools for the Gateway. To access the LAN Settings menu, click LAN in the menu bar. Figure
24 shows an example of the menu and Table 9 describes the settings you can select.
