LAN

You can configure the LAN IP address to suit your preference. Many users will find it convenient to use the default settings together with DHCP

service to manage the IP settings for their private network. The IP address of the Router is the base address used for DHCP. In order to use the

Router for DHCP on your LAN, the IP address pool used for DHCP must be compatible with the IP address of the Router. The IP addresses

available in the DHCP IP address pool will change automatically if you change the IP address of the Router.

To access the

Local Area Network (LAN) Setup

window, click the

LAN

button in the

Advanced Setup

directory.

This window allows you to set up a LAN interface. When

you are finished, click either the

Save

or
