IP configuration

Users can set the IP address configuration for both the LAN and Internet interfaces by
selecting IP Configuration from the Networking menu as shown in the following figure:

Figure 5.1 IP configuration

To configure the LAN Interface of the SnapGear appliance, select either a dynamically or
statically assigned IP address. If the LAN interface of your SnapGear appliance gets its
IP address from a DHCP server on your local network, then check DHCP assigned.

For a static IP address on the LAN interface, enter the IP Address and Netmask in the
fields provided. You must enter a static IP address if the SnapGear appliance will act as
the DHCP server on your local network.
