Network Settings
Select the method the VioGate server uses to connect o the network, and decides
whether to enable the multicast function. You need to understand the configuration of
your network to enter the correct setting. If you are uncertain about how your server
connects to the external network or have question on any of the TCP/IP setting in
general, please contact your network administrator for further assistance.
Obtain IP address settings automatically (DHCP)
Often used in conjunction with Cable Modem and corporate networks, the system will
obtain IP address and other TCP/IP information automatically. If your network
supports Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, the VioGate server will obtain the IP
address and other TCP/IP information automatically from the DHCP server.
Assign IP address settings manually
Use the specified IP address setting. Often used in ADSL permanent connection
service. You have to manually specify the IP address and other setting. If the server’s
external network uses ADSL service to connect to the internet, please specify the
valid IP address supplied by your ISP (Internet Service Provider). You have to enter
the following settings:
IP address
IP address is a sequence of binary number normally represented by 4 numbers
separated by periods, and is used to uniquely identify a server on the network.
Subnet Mask
Subnet Mask is used to group computers belonging to the same local area
network. Similar to IP address, it’s normally represented by 4 numbers separated
by periods.
