This displays whether the ZyWALL is functioning as a router or a bridge.

Device Mode Setup

Select this radio button and click Apply to set the ZyWALL to router mode.

LAN Interface

Subnet Mask

Enter the IP subnet mask of the ZyWALL’s LAN port.

DHCP Server

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, RFC 2131 and RFC 2132) allows

individual clients (computers) to obtain TCP/IP configuration at startup from a

server. Unless you are instructed by your ISP, leave the DHCP Server check box

selected. Clear it to stop the ZyWALL from acting as a DHCP server. When

configured as a server, the ZyWALL provides TCP/IP configuration for the clients.

If not, DHCP service is disabled and you must have another DHCP server on

your LAN, or else the computers must be manually configured. When set as a

server, fill in the rest of the DHCP setup fields.
