  • Page 55: Ip Address And Subnet Mask

    The subnet mask specifies the network number portion of an IP address. Your NBG-318S will compute the subnet mask automatically based on the IP address that you entered. You don't need to change the subnet mask computed by the NBG-318S unless you are instructed to do otherwise.
  • Page 56: Wan Ip And Dns Server Address Assignment

    The DNS server is extremely important because without it, you must know the IP address of a computer before you can access it. The NBG-318S uses a system DNS server (in the order you specify here) to resolve domain names for DDNS and the time server.

  • Page 58: Connection Wizard: Step 4: Bandwidth Management

    Bandwidth management allows you to control the amount of bandwidth going out through the NBG-318S’s WAN, LAN or WLAN port and prioritize the distribution of the bandwidth according to the traffic type. This helps keep one service from using all of the available bandwidth and shutting out other users.

    When you select WPA2 or WPA2-PSK in your NBG-318S, you can also select an option (WPA Compatible) to support WPA as well. In this case, if some wireless clients support WPA and some support WPA2, you should set up WPA2-PSK or WPA2 (depending on the type of wireless network login) and select the WPA Compatible option in the NBG-318S.

    5 The access points must be connected to the Ethernet and be able to get IP addresses from a DHCP server if using dynamic IP address assignment. 5.4 Quality of Service This section discusses the Quality of Service (QoS) features available on the NBG-318S. NBG-318S User’s Guide...
  • Page 75: Wmm Qos

    The NBG-318S uses WMM QoS to prioritize traffic streams according to the IEEE 802.1q tag or DSCP information in each packet’s header. The NBG-318S automatically determines the priority to use for an individual traffic stream.
  • Page 76: No Security

    Select No Security to allow wireless stations to communicate with the access points without any data encryption. If you do not enable any wireless security on your NBG-318S, your network is accessible to any wireless networking device that is within range.
