IP Address/Subnet Mask LAN
Two network devices can only communicate with each other if they have a unique name (address).
In IP networks, an IP address is used for this purpose. It ensures that the individual IP packets reach
their proper destination.
The
IP Address
and the
Subnet Mask
specified here are used to address the Gateway 400 in the net-
work.
DHCP Server LAN
A DHCP server enables a computer to be fully integrated in an existing network automatically with-
out any further configuration. The computer must only be set to automatically obtain an IP address
(see
Chapter 1.4, page 10
). The automatic assignment of IP addresses can be restricted to a specific
range of IP addresses (
Start IP Address
to
End IP Address
). You can also specify how long the assigned
IP addresses will remain valid. After this time, each computer will be assigned a new IP address. The
assignment of IP addresses is carried out for network devices that are connected via the LAN.
Distribute LAN IPv6 addresses (Router Advertisements activated)
Here you can configure the IPv6 prefix(es) for your home network. The current IPv6 prefix provided
by your ISP is shown under
Provider prefix
.
If
Activate Router Advertisements
is enabled but no
IPv6 prefix, LAN
has been configured, the
Pro-
vider prefix
supplied by your ISP will be automatically distributed in your network.
If you do not want the
Provider prefix
to be distributed in the local network, you must ensure that
the option
Router Advertisements
is disabled.

fault settings. Any changes to the settings in this screen dialog may cause the Gateway
400 to become inaccessible. If this should happen for some reason, reset the Gateway
400 to its factory settings. Please refer to
