Appendix A: Glossary
IP Address
The “IP address” is the internal IP address of the Router. To access
the advanced setup interface, type this IP address into the address
bar of your browser. This address can be changed if needed. To
change the IP address, type in the new IP address and click “Apply
Changes”. The IP address you choose should be a non-routable IP.
Examples of a non-routable IP are:
192.168.x.x (where x is anything between 0 and 255)
10.x.x.x (where x is anything between 0 and 255)
Subnet Mask
Some networks are far too large to allow all traffic to flood all its parts.
These networks must be broken down into smaller, more manageable
sections, called subnets. The subnet mask is the network address plus
the information reserved for identifying the “subnetwork”.
