3.2 How to Set Up Your X5v to
Use a Static IP Address
Most DSL service providers use DHCP, also known as dynamic IP
addressing, rather than static IP addresses. If your provider is using
1483 Bridged or Routed IP encapsulation, however, you have the
option of using a static IP address. Typically, you must request (and
pay extra) for a static IP address. To set up your X5v to use a static
IP address, go to the WAN Settings page, and fill out these fields.
Encapsulation
Enter the encapsulation mode supplied by your
provider. Remember, it must begin with either
1483 Bridged
IP
or
1483 Routed IP
; otherwise,
you cannot use a static IP address.
VPI
Supplied by your service provider. You can refer
to the tables beginning on page 69 if you have
misplaced or forgotten your VPI setting.
VCI
Supplied by your service provider. You can refer
to the tables beginning on page 69 if you have
misplaced or forgotten your VCI setting.
DHCP client enable

must
be disabled.
Static IP Address
Enter the static IP address supplied by your
service provider.
Subnet Mask

given to you by your service provider.

you by your service provider.
