¾Router Local IP: These are the IP settings of the LAN interface for the device. These settings may be referred to as Private settings. You may change the LAN IP address if needed. The LAN IP address is private to your internal network and cannot be seen on the Internet.

•IP Address: Enter the Router’s local IP Address, then you can access to the Web-based Utility via the IP Address, the default value is 192.168.1.1.

•IP Subnet Mask: Enter the Router’s Subnet Mask, the default value is 255.255.255.0.

•Dynamic Route: Select this option to specify the RIP (Routing Information protocol) version for LAN interface, including RIP1, RIP2-Band RIP2-M. RIP2-B and RIP2-M are both sent in RIP2 format, the difference is that RIP2-M using Multicast, while RIP2-B using Broadcast format.

•Direction: Select this option to specify the RIP direction. None is for disabling the RIP function. Both means the ADSL Router will periodically send routing information and accept routing information, and then incorporate them into routing table. IN only means the ADLS router will only accept but will not send RIP packet. OUT only means the ADLS router will only send but will not accept RIP packet.

•Multicast: Select IGMP version, or disable the function. IGMP (Internet Group Multicast Protocol) is a session-layer protocol used to establish membership in a multicast group. The ADSL ATU-R supports both IGMP version 1 (IGMP v1) and IGMP v2. Select “Disabled” to disable it.

•IGMP Snoop: Enable the IGMP Snoop function if you need.

¾DHCP Server: Select Enabled, then you will see the screen below (shown in Figure 4-10). The Router will work as a DHCP Server, it becomes the default gateway for DHCP client
