Basic configuration
The basic configuration can be performed on a step-by-step basis
using a convenient setup wizard to guide you through the setup
process and prompt you for the required information.
First, this chapter will tell you which information is required for the
basic configuration. Use this section to assemble the information you
will need before you launch the wizard.
Next, enter the data in the setup wizard. Launching the wizard and the
process itself are described step by step — with separate sections for
LANconfig and WEBconfig. Thanks to the information that you have
collected in advance, the basic configuration is quick and effortless.
At the end of this chapter we will show you the settings that are
needed for the LAN's workstations to ensure trouble-free access to
the router.
4.1
Which information is necessary?
The basic configuration wizard will take care of the basic TCP/IP
configuration of the router and protect the device with a configuration
password. The following descriptions of the information required by
the wizard are grouped in these configuration sections:
• TCP/IP settings
• protection of the configuration
• information on DSL connection
• configuring connect charge protection
• security settings
4.1.1
TCP/IP settings
The TCP/IP configuration can be realized in two ways: either as a
fully automatic configuration or manually. No user input is required
for the fully automatic TCP/IP configuration. All parameters are set
automatically by the setup wizard. During manual TCP/IP
configuration, the wizard will prompt you for the usual TCP/IP
parameters: IP address, netmask etc. (more on these topics later).
Fully automatic TCP/IP configuration is only possible in certain
network environments. The setup wizard therefore analyses the
connected LAN to determine whether it supports fully automatic
configuration.
