CHAPTER 6 CONFIGURING YOUR DEVICE
5.
In the
Gateway
field, type the gateway address. The default Gateway address is the LAN IP address of the
router.
6.
In the
Domain
field, type your network domain, if any.
7.
In the
Lease Time
field, type the DHCP lease time. Lease time is set in days, hours, and minutes. A Lease
Time of 00-00-00 is an infinite lease time.
8.
In the
Lease Range Start
field and in the
Lease Range End
field, type the range of IP addresses to be
assigned by DHCP.
9.
Click
Submit
. If you are finished making changes, click
Save and Restart
.
Assigning fixed addresses
1.
In the
Fixed Address
group, click
Add
. A dialog box opens, where you define the address.
2.
In the
MAC Address
field, type the MAC address to which the specified IP address binds.
3.
In the
IP Address
field, type the fixed IP address to be assigned.
4.
Click
Finish
. The addresses are added.
Configuring the Global Positioning System (GPS)
Some routers have a built-in GPS receiver. If your router has a GPS receiver, the router can forward NMEA
(National Marine Electronics Association) sentences from the GPS receiver to a device connected to the router's
serial port. You can also send the GPS data over the network to a remote computer. To configure GPS on your
router:
1.
From
Setup
, select
GPS Configuration
.
2.
To configure the TCP server port and enable a serial port dump of NMEA sentences, seeDumping NMEA
sentence information to the router's TCP server port.
3.
To allow your router to connect and send GPS data to a remote server, see Sending GPS information to a
remote server.
4.
To set the time interval after which GPS data is sent, and to configure further details about the GPS
information that is sent, see Configuring NMEA Sentences.
Notes:
■
All enabled sentences are forwarded periodically using the interval specified in the NMEA Configuration
section. Before forwarding, the router adds an ID prefix and ID to each enabled NMEA sentence. If set, the
NMEA sentences available are those provided by the built in receiver which are: GPGGA, GPGSA, GPGSV,
GPGLL, GPRMC, GPVTG.
■
You can simultaneously enable the TCP Server, TCP/UDP client, and serial port dump.
Dumping NMEA sentence information to the router's TCP server port
To configure the TCP server port where you can send the NMEA sentences:
1.
From the
Local Configuration
group, check
TCP Server
.
2.
In the
Port
field, type the port number on which the TCP server is listening for connections. The default is
5445. You can use up to five digits. Each digit itself must be between 0 and 9. Numbers above 65,535 are
illegal as the port identification fields are 16 bits long in the TCP header.
3.
If you want the server to request that the remote client supply a password before the NMEA sentences
are sent, type that password in the
Password
field.
