6.2.9 FSG Health
This option allows you to change the fan speed. Reducing the fan speed means
less noise but higher device temperatures. When operating the device in high
ambient temperatures or the device is always in use, it is recommended to
increase the fan speed in order to achieve a better cooling effect.
Attention: Do not permanently switch off the fan as this can lead
to excessive heat which might cause damage to your device!
6.3 Services
Every service of your FSG-3 has its own configuration page here.
6.3.1 DHCP Server
The DHCP server is responsible for giving dynamic IP addresses to the computers
on the LAN. For more information, please read Networks and Router Basics.
Options Description
Start DHCP server Check this if you want to run the DHCP server. Do not
run the DHCP server if you use fixed IP addresses.
Subnet mask The subnet mask in use for the DHCP server.
Gateway The IP address of the gateway the DHCP clients should
be automatically forwarded to if they want to reach
external sites. This address should usually be the FSG-3
itself, unless a different gateway is running.
