Every machine connected to the TCP/IP network must have an unique
IP address
.
The
IP
address
is always presented by dotted decimal format (four 8-bit number between 0 to 255
separated by periods), e.g.
123.97.35.7.
The
IP address
was defined by the IANA (Internet
Assigned Numbers Authority). The IANA had reserved the following
IP address
for the private
network, therefore it is recommended that you follow the defined rules.
10.0.0.0
- 10.255.255.255
172.16.0.0
- 172.31.255.255
192.168.0.0
- 192.168.255.255
An IP address consists of network ID and host ID. The
netmask
is used to extract the network ID from the
dotted decimal notation. The router will automatically calculate the network ID from the
IP address
and
netmask
. This command configures the IP address and network mask for the LAN of this router.
