Advanced Feature

This chapter contains details on the configuration and the usage of these features.

5.1

Host IP Setup

This feature is used in the following situations:

•

You have Multi-Session PPPoE, and wish to bind each session to a particular PC on

your LAN.

•

You wish to use the

Access Filter

feature. This requires that each PC be identified by

using the

Host IP Setup

screen.

•

You wish to have different

URL Filter

settings for different PCs. This requires that each

PC be identified by using the

Host IP Setup

screen. (You do not have to use the Host

IP feature to apply the same

URL Filter

settings to all PCs.)

•

You wish to reserve a particular (LAN) IP address for a particular PC on your LAN. This

allows the PC to use DHCP (Windows calls this "Obtain an IP address automatically")

while enjoying the benefits of a fixed IP address. The PC's IP address will never change,

so it can be provided to other people and applications.
