LAN

* Enable Interface: Enables all LAN-connected computers to share resources and to con-
nect to the WAN. The Inter face should always be enabled unless you are instructed to dis-
able it by your Ser vice Provider during troubleshooting.

* IP Address: The LAN IP Address of the Gateway. The IP Address you assign to your LAN
inter face must not be used by another device on your LAN network.

* IP Netmask: Specifies the subnet mask for the TCP/IP network connected to the virtual
circuit. The subnet mask specifies which bits of the 32-bit binar y IP address represent net-
work information. The default subnet mask for most networks is 255.255.255.0 (Class C
subnet mask.)

* Restrictions: Specifies whether an administrator can open a Web Administrator or Telnet
connection to the Gateway over the LAN inter face in order to monitor and configure the
Gateway. On the LAN Inter face, you can enable or disable administrator access. By default,
administrative restrictions are turned off, meaning an administrator can open a Web
Administrator or Telnet connection through the LAN Inter face.
