Configuring the MM2211 Gateway
Customizing the System Configuration
It is recommended that you customize the username and password so that you can control who can gain
administrative access to the MM2211 Gateway. We recommend that you do not change the IP address (LAN)
of the MM2211 Gateway. The MM2211 Gateway has DHCP enabled by default, and provides network
address translation and security functionality to your home PC. Refer to
Table 7
for details on each field.

WAN Interface
The selection criteria for WAN interface determine how the Metro Wireless Access
Gateway receives its IP address assignment on the WAN interface. Selecting Obtain
an IP address automatically will allow the Wireless Access Gateway to get a
dynamically assigned IP address from the Metro Mesh node (or the DHCP server
behind the Metro Mesh node). Use the following IP address selection to statically
configure an IP address to the Wireless Access Gateway.
