Chapter 3 Using the Administrative Utility
Obtain IP Address Automatically (DHCP Client)
Do not select this option unless a
DHCP
server is connected to the network. A
DHCP
server provides an
IP
address to computers and other devices.
Fixed IP Address
Select this if the Network does not have a
DHCP
server, and enter the following
data.
IP Address:
(Default:192.168.0.100) The
IP
address must be unused, and compatible with
the computers on the network. Usually, this means the first three text boxes
should be the same as the computer, and the last text box must be an unused
number between 1 and 254.
Network Mask:
(Default: 255.255.255.0) Enter the same Network Mask (Subnet Mask) used by
computers on the network.
Gateway (Router)
(Default: None) If the network has a router or gateway connected to it, enter its
IP
address here. Otherwise, leave this blank.
Enable DHCP Server Function
Click in the check box to enable/disable the
DHCP
server. If a
DHCP
server is
already present, do not enable this feature.
Start/Finish Address
Enter the first and last addresses of the range of
IP
addresses to be allocated by the
DHCP
server in these text text boxes, respectively. The first three text boxes of each
must correspond with each other.
