Home Networking
8.1 Overview
A Local Area Network (LAN) is a shared communication system to which many networking devices
are connected. It is usually located in one immediate area such as a building or floor of a building.
Use the LAN screens to help you configure a LAN DHCP server and manage IP addresses.
8.1.1 What You Can Do in the LAN Screens
•Use the LAN Setup screen to set the LAN IP address, subnet mask, and DHCP settings of your
AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries (Section 8.2 on page 123).
•Use the Static DHCP screen to assign IP addresses on the LAN to specific individual computers
based on their MAC Addresses (Section 8.3 on page 125).
•Use the UPnP screen to enable UPnP and UPnP NAT traversal on the AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries
(Section 8.4 on page 126).
•Use the IP Alias screen (Section 8.5 on page 126) to change your AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries’s
IP alias settings.
•Use the IPv6 LAN Setup screen (Section 8.6 on page 127) to configure the IPv6 settings on
your AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries’s LAN interface.
