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
Modem 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 Modem, 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 Modem 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 “Modem Address” and “Unnumbered Subnet
Mask” text boxes below the “Unnumbered
IP
Address.” Click Next, then click Save
and Restart to make all changes permanent.
