Chapter 3: Basic configuration

IP address assignment via a separate DHCP server

The workstation PCs must be configured so that they automatically obtain their own IP address and the IP addresses of the standard gateway and DNS server (via DHCP). The IP address of the LANCOM router must be stored on the DHCP server so that the DHCP server transmits it to the PCs in the LAN as the standard gateway. In addition, the DHCP server should also specify the LANCOM router as a DNS server.

Manual IP address assignment

If the IP addresses in the network are assigned static ally, then for each PC the IP address of the LANCOM router must be set in the TCP/IP configura- tion as the standard gateway and as a DNS server.

For further information and help on the TCP/IP settings of your LANCOM router, please see the reference manual. For more informa- tion on the network configuration of the workstation computers, please refer to the documentation of your operating system.
