5.2.3 LAN

There are two ways to assign IP addresses to computers: Static IP Address (set the IP address for

every computer manually), and Dynamic IP Address (IP address of computers will be assigned by a

router automatically). It is recommended for most of computers to use dynamic IP address, because it

will save a lot of time on setting IP addresses for every computer, especially when there are a lot of

computers in the network; for servers and network devices which will provide services to other

computers and users that come from Internet, static IP address should be useful, so other computes

are able to locate the server. You can configure the IP parameters of the LAN on the screen as below.
