1.3.1 Bridge Mode

In Bridge mode, P964 operates just like a normal cable modem. All operation is compliant to
DOCSIS/EuroDOCSIS specifications.

1.3.2 IP Sharing Mode

In IP Sharing mode, the P964 operates as a NAT router. It requires one public IP address from MSO's DHCP
pool and provides private IP address space for LAN users. The public IP can be static assigned or dynamically
assigned through DHCP.

1.3.3 Static IP Mode

In Static IP mode, P964 provide a routed subnet on its Ethernet interface. A public IP subnet can be assigned
at the Ethernet interface such that the end user can have a static assigned subnet. At the same time, the LAN
users can also use private IP addresses to get on Internet.
