RTA1200 USER'S GUIDE
Set Static DHCP: This allows specific devices to be given a specific IP address each time the device connects to
the network. The DHCP server will always assign the same IP address to the same device. This feature is often
used for shared devices such as network printers or servers.
802.1d Spanning Type (STP): A network protocol that ensures a loop-free topology for networks that have
Ethernet bridges. The STP prevents bridge loops and allows a network design to include redundant links to
provide automatic backup paths if active links fails.
Clone MAC Address: The Router can use a MAC address that you define as its own. This is often used when an
Internet Provider only authorizes one MAC address to access the Internet. Cloning the MAC address will make
it so that the cloned MAC address is the only MAC address seen by the Internet Provider.
