The following table describes the labels in this screen.

3.2 IP Address and Subnet Mask

See

Appendix C on page 141

for background information on IP addresses and subnetting.

3.2.1 IP Address Assignment

A static IP is a fixed IP that your ISP gives you. A dynamic IP is not fixed; the ISP assigns you
a different one each time. The Single User Account feature can be enabled or disabled if you
have either a dynamic or static IP. However the encapsulation method assigned influences
your choices for IP address and ENET ENCAP gateway.
