Gateway IP Address (the router’s LAN IP address)

Primary DNS Server (if you entered a Primary DNS address in the Basic Settings menu;

Using Address Reservation
When you specify a reserved IP address for a computer on the LAN, that computer will always
receive the same IP address each time it accesses the router’s DHCP server. Reserved IP addresses
should be assigned to servers that require permanent IP settings.
To reserve an IP address:
1.
Click the
Add
button.
2.
In the IP Address box, type the IP address to assign to the computer or server. Choose an IP
address from the router’s LAN subnet, 192.168.1.X.
3.
Type the MAC Address of the computer or server.
4.
Click
Apply
to enter the reserved address into the table.
Note: The reserved address will not be assigned until the next time the computer contacts the
router's DHCP server. Reboot the computer or access its IP configuration and force a DHCP
release and renew.
To edit or delete a reserved address entry:
1.
Click the button next to the reserved address you want to edit or delete.
2.
Click
Edit
or
Delete
.
Tip:
If the computer is already present on your network, you can copy its MAC
address from the Attached Devices menu and paste it here.
