This table describes the parameters that can be modified in the Management
Port Setup
page.
Parameters Description
IP Address When the DHCP server of the access point is enabled (unless you
set a different DHCP Gateway IP Address), this LAN IP Address
would be allocated as the Default Gateway of the DHCP client.
The IP address of your Access point is set by default to
192.168.168.1
.
Network Mask The Network Mask serves to identify the subnet in which your
Access point resides. The default network mask is 255.255.255.0.
Management
Gateway IP (Optional) As a bridge Access Point, the access point does not
usually communicate with devices on other IP subnets. However,
the Management Gateway here acts as the equivalent of the
Default Gateway of a PC, to allow the access point to
communicate with devices on different subnets. For instance, if
you want to access the access point from the Internet or from a
router on the LAN, enter the router IP address in the
Management Gateway IP
field.
The Management Gateway IP address of your access point is set
to nil by default.
The next two fields (DHCP Start IP Address and DHCP End IP Address) allow you to define
the range of IP addresses from which the DHCP Server can assign an IP address to the
LAN.
DHCP
Start IP
Address
This is the first IP address that the DHCP server will assign. The
value that you input here should belong to the same subnet as
your access point. For example, if the IP address and network
mask of your access point are 192.168.168.1 and 255.255.255.0
respectively, the DHCP Start IP Address should be 192.168.168.X,
where X can take any value from 2 to 254. It is pre-set to
192.168.168.100
.
DHCP End IP
Address
This is the last IP address that the DHCP server can assign. It
should also belong to the same subnet as your access point. For
instance, if the IP address and network mask of your access point
are 192.168.168.1 and 255.255.255.0 respectively, the DHCP End
IP Address should be 192.168.168.X, where X can take any value
from 2 to 254. It is pre-set as 192.168.168.254.
