DESCRIPTION

IP Address Assignment

Get automatically from

DHCP

Select this option if your ZyXEL Device is using a dynamically assigned IP

address from a DHCP server each time.

Note: You must know the IP address assigned to the

ZyXEL Device (by the DHCP server) to access the
ZyXEL Device again.

Use fixed IP address

Select this option if your ZyXEL Device is using a static IP address. When

you select this option, fill in the fields below.

IP Address

Enter the IP address of your ZyXEL Device in dotted decimal notation.

Note: If you change the ZyXEL Device's IP address, you

must use the new IP address if you want to access
the web configurator again.

IP Subnet Mask

Type the subnet mask.

Gateway IP Address

Type the IP address of the gateway. The gateway is an immediate neighbor

of your ZyXEL Device that will forward the packet to the destination. On the

LAN, the gateway must be a router on the same segment as your ZyXEL

Device; over the WAN, the gateway must be the IP address of one of the

remote nodes.
