D-Link ShareCenter Pulse User Manual
The LAN Settings allows you to configure the Link Speed and to configure the IP
address as a DHCP client or Static IP.
DHCP Client:
By selecting 'DHCP Client', the ShareCenter Pulse will
act as a DHCP client and obtain its LAN IP settings from
the DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server
on the local network. By default, the ShareCenter Pulse is
set to obtain an IP address from a DHCP server on your
network.
Static IP:
If necessary, you can assign a static IP address to the
ShareCenter Pulse.
IP Address:
The IP address of each device on the local area network must be within the same IP address range and subnet mask. For a small subnet with
less than 253 IP addresses assigned (e.g. Class C private IP), each device on the LAN (Local Area Network) needs have a unique IP Address in
the format of (example) 192.168.0.x to connect to other devices within the same network.
Subnet Mask:
Specify the subnet mask for the ShareCenter Pulse. The Subnet mask must be the same for all devices on the same subnet of the network. The
default subnet setting is 255.255.255.0. For a small subnet with less than 253 IP addresses assigned (e.g. Class C private IP), keep this default
setting.
Gateway IP Address:
Specify the Gateway IP Address for the ShareCenter Pulse. The Gateway IP Address is almost always the LAN address of your router. Most
D-Link routers have a default LAN IP address of 192.168.0.1.
DNS1:
Specify the first and second DNS Addresses for the ShareCenter Pulse. A DNS Address will allow the ShareCenter Pulse to resolve names into
DNS2:
IP addresses. Example: Without a DNS address, the ShareCenter Pulse would not be able to contact an FTP site such as ftp.dlink.com (name).
Instead, you would need to use 64.7.210.131 (IP address). It is recommended that you enter DNS addresses when setting a Static IP Address.
Often you can use the LAN IP address of your router as a DNS address. Click 'Save Settings' when finished.
