Corinex ADSL2+ Wireless Gateway G Configuration
Corinex ADSL2+ Wireless Gateway G
You can choose from Unmanaged, Automatic or Static IP settings for this LAN
Group. Unmanaged settings don’t require any additional configuration. With the
setting “Obtain an IP Address automatically”, the LAN group will request the IP
Settings from a DHCP server in the LAN.
If you choose the Static IP Settings, you can configure the following fields: IP
Address, Netmask, Default Gateway, Host Name and Domain.
The gateway includes a DHCP server and DHCP relay functionality. You can choose
from Enable DHCP Server, Enable DHCP Relay or DHCP Server and Relay
off.
You can enable the DHCP Server by clicking the radio button Enable DHCP
Server.
You will need to specify the Start IP Address and End IP Address for assigning
addresses to clients. With Lease Time, you can specify how many seconds a client
will hold the assigned IP before it asks for a new one. The default settings is one hour
(3600 seconds).
In addition to the DHCP server feature, the Gateway supports the DHCP relay
function. When the gateway is configured as a DHCP server, it assigns the IP
addresses to the LAN clients. When the Gateway is configured as DHCP relay, it
is responsible for forwarding the requests and responses negotiating between the
DHCP clients and the server.
By turning off the DHCP server and relay the network administrator must carefully
configure the IP address, Subnet Mask and DNS settings of every computer on your
network. Do not assign the same IP address to more than one computer and your
ADSL+ Gateway must be on the same subnet as all the other computers.
You can configure additional settings for each LAN Group, by clicking on one of
the buttons IP Filters, Bridge Filters, UPnP, LAN Clients, IP QoS and Static
Routing on the right side of the LAN Group Configuration screen. This features will
be described later in this user guide.
