A Media Access Control (MAC) address is a 12-digit code assigned to a unique piece of hardware for identification.  Some ISPs will require you to register a MAC address for Internet access. If your computer’s MAC address is registered with your ISP and you do not wish to re-register the MAC address, you may assign the registered MAC address to the Valet with the MAC Address Clone feature..

NAT

Enabled/Disabled  If the Valet is hosting your network’s connection to the Internet, keep the default, Enabled. If another router exists on your network, select Disabled.  When Network Address Translation (NAT) is disabled, dynamic routing will be available..

Dynamic Routing (RIP)

Dynamic routing uses the Routing Information Protocol (RIP). This option enables the Valet to automatically adjust to physical changes in the network’s layout and exchange routing tables with the other router(s). The Valet determines the network packets’ route based on the fewest number of hops between the source and the destination. 

Enabled/Disabled  When NAT is disabled, the Dynamic Routing option is available. To use the Dynamic Routing option, select Enabled..

Static Routing

Astatic route is a pre-determined pathway that network information must travel to reach a specific host or network. Enter the information described below to set up a new static route..
