Figure 15 IP Settings (Bridge)
Obtain IP Address Automatically
: If a DHCP server exists in your network, you can check this
option, thus the WNAP-6300 is able to obtain IP settings automatically from that DHCP server.
Note
: When the IP address of the WNAP-6300 is changed, the clients on the network often need
to wait for a while or even reboot before they can access the new IP address. For an immediate
access to the bridge, please flush the netbios cache on the client computer by running the “nbtstat
–r” command before using the device name of the WNAP-6300 to access its Web Management
page.
Use Fixed IP Address
: Check this option. You have to specify a static IP address, subnet mask,
default gateway and DNS server for WNAP-6300 manually. Make sure the specified IP address is
unique on your network in order to prevent IP conflict.
