[. . . ] Private IP Address: the private IP address for the LAN interface on the Broadband Router. If you want to create your own private network through other Broadband Router with remote offices, you need to make sure that each Broadband Router router on each LAN is assigned a unique private IP network address. The default IP private address is 192. 168. 168. 230 with a network mask of 255. 255. 255. 0. This private address may be changed to any private address and network mask as specified in the following table: Default Network Mask Maximum Number of Host Addresses 16, 777, 214 Network Address Network Prefix Lowest/ Highest Address 10. 0. 0. 1/ 10. 255. 255. 254 172. xx. 0. 1/ 172. xx. 255. 254 A 10. 0. 0. 0 8 bits 255. 0. 0. 0 B 172. xx. 0. 0 12 bits 255. 255. 0. 0 65534 C 192. 168. xx. 0 16 bits 255. 255. 255. 0 254 192. 168. xx. 1/ 192. 168. xx. 254 Table 4-1 IP Address Ranges for the Broadband Router However, please note that once you change the private IP address (such as from the default of 192. 168. 168. 230 to 192. 168. 167. 230) either from the browser or through a telnet session (which is based on the IP address), the device from which you operate will no longer be able to communicate with your Broadband Router router. This is so that your device will re-acquire the IP address from the 4-19 Broadband Router router based on the new private IP address, and then your device can again communicate with your Broadband Router. For the same reason, all devices on the LAN need to be restarted before they can access the Internet again. Primary DNS IP Address: the IP address of the primary Domain Name Server (DNS). If properly configured, when a device reboots and acquires the IP address from the Broadband Router, the IP addresses of both the primary and the secondary DNS server will be provided to requesting client workstations. When a Broadband Router connects to the ISP, it will automatically be assigned the IP address for a primary Domain Name Server (DNS), as well as the IP address for a secondary DNS. Alternatively, the user can decide that they want to assign their own DNS IP addresses. Secondary DNS IP Address: the IP address of the secondary domain name server. DHCP: this enables or disables the Broadband Router Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) feature. If you want the Broadband Router to act as a DHCP server and assign private IP addresses to requesting DHCP clients, make sure DHCP is enabled. When enabled, the Broadband Router will provide an IP address, network mask, gateway address (the Broadband Router private IP address), DNS addresses and WINS addresses and node type to any workstation on the local area network that is configured as a DHCP client. Devices on your network that are configured with public IP addresses are not DHCP clients. Therefore, you need to assign their IP addresses, network mask, default gateway's IP address, primary and secondary DNS IP addresses manually. IP Address Assignment: sets the range of IP address IP RIP: sets IP RIP to Disable, Active or Passive. The Broadband Router can both receive routing table broadcasts and transmit routing table information. When disabled, no routing information is transmitted or processed if received. When Active, the Broadband Router broadcasts its address every 30 seconds and also listens for routing information on the network. When Passive, the Broadband Router does not broadcast its routing information, but simply listens for routing information from the network and updates its routing tables. IP RIP Version: select the system-wide setting of the RIP version to be used if RIP is enabled.
