TCP/IP
IP Address
IP address for the LevelOne FBR-1800TX Broadband Router, as seen
from the local LAN. Use the default value unless the address is already
in use or your LAN is using a different IP address range. In the latter
case, enter an unused IP Address from within the range used by your
LAN.
Subnet Mask
The default value 255.255.255.0 is standard for small (class "C")
networks. For other networks, use the Subnet Mask for the LAN
segment to which the LevelOne FBR-1800TX Broadband Router is
attached (the same value as the PCs on that LAN segment).
DHCP Server
•
If Enabled, the LevelOne FBR-1800TX Broadband Router will
allocate IP Addresses to PCs (DHCP clients) on your LAN when
they start up. The default (and recommended) value is Enabled.
•
If you are already using a DHCP Server, this setting must be
Disabled, and the existing DHCP server must be re-configured to
treat the LevelOne FBR-1800TX Broadband Router as the default
Gateway. See the following section for further details.
•
The
Start IP Address
and
Finish IP Address
fields set the values
used by the DHCP server when allocating IP Addresses to DHCP
clients. This range also determines the number of DHCP clients
supported.
See the following section for further details on using DHCP.
