Chapter 4 Using Advanced Setup

Specify a Static IP Address

Select this option if the

ISP

service is configured to use

RFC

1483

Bridged or

Routed using a Static

IP

Address. Enter the

IP

Address, Subnet Mask, and Default

Gateway Address provided by the

ISP

in the “Broadband Connection via Static

IP

Address” screen, which causes the

IP

address and routing information to termi-

nate at the Gateway, as opposed to the

IP

address and routing information being

bridged to terminate at the computer. This allows the use of the router capabilities
for the Local Area Network (

LAN

).

Note: Contact the

ISP

if unsure of the proper configuration.

Encapsulation

If the Gateway is configured to obtain an

IP

address through

DHCP

or to specify a

static

IP

address, select the appropriate encapsulation option used by the ISP (

RFC

1483

Bridged or

RFC

1483

Routed).

Note: Contact the

ISP

if unsure of the proper configuration.

Unnumbered Mode/VIP Mode

If a block of public static

IP

addresses was purchased from the

ISP

, select

Unnumbered Mode by clicking in the appropriate check box. Then, enter the IP
Address and Subnet Mask in the “Gateway Address” and “Unnumbered Subnet
Mask” text boxes below the “Unnumbered

IP

Address.” Click Next, then click Save

and Restart to make all changes permanent.
