Advanced configuration – Host IP
This feature is used in the following situations:
•
You have Multi-Session PPPoE, and wish to bind each session to a particular PC on your
LAN.
•
You wish to use the
Access Filter
feature. This requires that each PC is identified by using
the
Host IP
screen.
•
You wish to have different
Block URL
settings for different PCs. This requires that each PC
is identified by using the
Host IP
screen. (You do not have to use the Host IP feature to
apply the same
Block URL
settings to all PCs.)
•
You wish to reserve a particular (LAN) IP address for a particular PC on your LAN. This
allows the PC to use DHCP (Windows calls this "Obtain an IP address automatically") while
gaining the benefits of a fixed IP address. The PC's IP address will never change, so it can
be provided to other people and applications.
