Obtain an IP address
automatically
(DHCP)
Enable this checked box when a DHCP server is installed on the
network to issue IP address assignment. With this setting, the IP
address is assigned automatically. If this device cannot get an IP
address within limited tries, the device will assign a default IP
address for 192.168.0.20.
If you do not select “Obtain an IP address automatically”, then you
need to enter these network parameters by yourself.
IP Address
This address is a unique number that identifies a computer or device
on the WAN or LAN. These numbers are usually shown in groups
separated by periods, for example: 192.168.0.200.
The default IP is 192.168.0.20 if there is no DHCP server in the
network.
Subnet Mask
Subnets allow network traffic between hosts to be separated based
on the network's configuration. In IP networking, traffic takes the form
of packets. IP subnets advance network security and performance to
some level by organizing hosts into logical groups. Subnet masks
contain four bytes and usually appear in the same "dotted decimal"
data. For example, a very common subnet mask in its binary
demonstration 11111111 11111111 11111111 00000000 will usually be
shown in the corresponding, more readable form as 255.255.255.0.
Gateway Address
A gateway is a piece of software or hardware that passes information
between networks. You'll see this term most often when you either
log in to an Internet site or when you're transient email between
different servers.
MAC Address
Display the Ethernet MAC address of the device. Note that user
cannot change it.
Preferred DNS
Server
When you send email or position a browser to an Internet domain
such as xxxxx.com, the domain name system translates the names
into IP addresses. The term refers to two things: the conventions for
naming hosts and the way the names are controlled across the
Internet.
