LAN Gateway and DHCP Settings
Configure the gateway address of the Wireless Barricade Plus. To
dynamically assign the IP address for client PCs, enable the DHCP Server,
set the lease time, and then specify the address range. Also remember to
configure all of your client PCs for dynamic address allocation.
Valid IP addresses consist of four numbers, and are separated by periods.
The first three fields are the network portion, and can be from 0–255,
while the last field is the host portion and can be from 1–254. However,
remember not to include the gateway address of the Wireless Barricade
Plus in the client address pool. If you change the pool range, make sure the
first three octets match the gateway’s IP address, i.e., 192.168.2.xxx.
Note: Verify that your IP address pool is from 192.168.2.2 to
192.168.2.254, your subnet mask is 255.255.255.0 and your default
gateway is 192.168.2.1.
