Reference Guide for the Model RH340 Internet Access ISDN Router
Preparing Your Network
3-3
Unless you have a reason to do otherwise, install TCP/IP so that the computer obtains its specific
network configuration information from a DHCP server during bootup. The Model RH340 router
is shipped preconfigured as a DHCP server. The router assigns the following TCP/IP configuration
information automatically when the PCs are rebooted:
•
PC or workstation IP addresses—192.168.0.2 through 192.168.0.31
•
Subnet mask—255.255.255.0
•
Gateway address (the router)—192.168.0.1
•
DNS server (the router)—192.168.0.1 (The router performs DNS Proxy.)
These addresses are part of the IETF-designated private address range for use in private networks.
