CHAPTER 6 ROUTER MODULE OPERATION
6.3 The Description of the Configuration
6.3.1 LAN Setup
IP
Address
The IP address is a unique 4-byte (32-bit) numeric value
used to identify a network and a local host on that network.
Each IP address consists of four sets of decimal numbers
separated by the period (e.g. 192.72.243.1).
Each address is composed of two parts: a network part
and a host part. The network part identifies the unique
subnet that contains the host; the host part identifies the
actual host device.
IP
NetMask
The IP address netmask (also 32 bits, written in dotted
decimal notation) is used in conjunction with an IP address
to specify which bits of the address make up the network
part and which the host part. A one (1) in a mask bit
location means the corresponding bit in the IP address is
part of the network value; a zero (0) means the
corresponding bit is part of the host value.
6.3.2 WAN Setup
WAN
Protocol
