Beginning IP Address

This is the IP address at which the $(#0server starts assigning IP addresses. We

recommend keeping the factory default setting (192.168.1.64).

Ending IP Address

This is the IP address at which the $(#0server stops assigning IP addresses. We

recommend keeping the factory default settings (192.168.1.254).

The beginning and ending IP addresses define the IP address range of the

Gateway. If the default values are left intact, the Gateway supplies a unique IP

address between 192.168.1.64 and 192.168.1.254 to each computer on the net-

work. Note that the first three groups of numbers of the addresses are identical;

this means they are on the same subnet. The IP address of the Gateway must

be on the same subnet as the IPADDRESSRANGEITGENERATES&ORINSTANCEIFTHE
