PPP IP Address Enables/disables PPP unnumbered feature.
IP Address The IP address should be different but within the same
subnet as the WAN-side IP address.
Use the following Static IP
address
This field enables you to change the IP address of the
router.
IP Address The default IP address of the router (as shown) is
192.168.1.1.
Netmask The default subnet mask of your router is 255.255.255.0.
This subnet allows the router to support 254 users. If you
want to support a larger number of users you can
change the subnet mask.
Default Gateway The default gateway is the routing device used to
forward all traffic that is not addressed to a station
within the local subnet. Your ISP provides you with the
IP address of the default gateway.
Host Name The host name is used in conjunction with the domain
name to uniquely identify the router. It can be any
alphanumeric word that does not contain spaces.
Domain The domain name is used in conjunction with the host
name to uniquely identify the router. To access the web
pages of the router you can type 192.168.1.1 (the IP
address) or mygateway1.ar7 (Host Name.Domain).
Enable DHCP Server Enables/disables DHCP. By default, your router has the
DHCP server (LAN side) enabled. If you already have a
DHCP server running on your network, you must disable
one of the two DHCP servers.
Assign ISP DNS,
SNTP
Enable/disables the Assign ISP DNS, SNTP feature when
the DHCP server of your router has been enabled. To
learn more, please refer to Assign ISP DNS, SNTP.
Start IP The Start IP Address is where the DHCP server starts
issuing IP addresses. This value must be greater than the
IP address value of the router. For example, if the IP
address of the router is 192.168.1.1 (default), then the
starting IP address must be 192.168.1.2 (or higher).
Note:
Note:Note:
Note: If you change the start or end values, make sure
the values are still within the same subnet as the router.
In other words, if the IP address of the router is
192.168.1.1 (default) and you change the DHCP
start/end IP addresses to be
192.168.1.2/192.168.1.100, you cannot communicate
