2-3 LAN 
To set the LAN’s IP Address and DHCP Service. 

2-3-1 LAN Settings 
The default value is 
192.168.1.1 for the IP 
address and 255.255.255.0 
for the Subnet Mask. And 
you can also change the 
value for your needs.

 

To enable the DHCP server for dynamic IP address allocation to the 
clients PCs, click the “Enable”. The client can get the IP Addresses from a 
range from IP Pool Starting Address to IP Pool Ending Address, also, you 
can change the IP Pool range value. 
The Lease Time is the amount of time a network user will be allowed 
connection to the Router with their current dynamic IP address. Enter the 
amount of time, in hours, days or weeks, which the user will be “leased” 
this dynamic IP address. 
You can enter your local domain name in the Local Domain Name fields. 

2-3-2  DHCP Client List 
The DHCP client list allows you to see which clients are connected to the 
Barricade via IP address, host name, and MAC address. 

 

2-4 NAT 
Network Address Translation (NAT) allows multiple users at the local site 
to access the Internet through a single public IP address. NAT can also 
prevent hacker attacks by mapping local addresses to public addresses for 
key services such as the Web or FTP.
