Editing Address Allocation Settings
The Current Settings panel displays the computers currently on the local network, and their IP address. It
also indicates whether a given computer is receiving its IP address via DHCP or has been manually entered
into the computer (static).
If users enable the Public Network feature, they can choose to have their broadband accessible (non-NAT) IP
addresses assigned automatically via DHCP to computers on the local network. To do so:
1. Click the Edit Address Allocation button. The Edit Address Allocation Settings page opens.
2. In the Settings panel, select an available IP address from the pulldown menu next to the computer to
which you want an IP address automatically assigned.
3. Click Save.
Users can choose to have the address assigned from any of the available networks. Computers that are
assigned non-routable (private network) addresses will use Network Address Translation (NAT) to access
the internet. Selecting a “DHCP Fixed” entry instructs the gateway to always provide the same address from
the DHCP pool to the specified computer.
Computers on the Public Network are still behind the firewall. To allow inbound traffic to these computers,
the firewall settings specified for that computer must be modified.
