|
|
|
|
| UPnP |
| UPnP supports |
|
|
|
| for many types of networked devices. When enabled, it allows other |
|
|
|
| devices that support UPnP to dynamically join a network, obtain an IP |
|
|
|
| address, convey its capabilities, and learn about the presence and |
|
|
|
| capabilities of other devices. DHCP and DNS service can also be used if |
|
|
|
| available on the network. UPnP also allows supported devices to leave a |
|
|
|
| network automatically without adverse effects to the device or other |
|
|
|
| devices on the network. |
|
| IGMP Snooping |
| IGMP snooping is a feature that allows the |
|
|
|
| "listen in" on the IGMP conversation between hosts and routers. By |
|
|
|
| doing so, this device can forwards the multicast packets to the hosts |
|
|
|
| which have joined the multicast group, instead of flooding to all hosts. |
|
|
|
| Standard Mode: Listen and forward |
|
|
|
| Blocking Mode: Listen and block |
|
| DHCP |
| The DHCP server is enabled by default for the Router’s Ethernet LAN |
|
|
|
| interface. DHCP service will supply IP settings to workstations configured |
|
|
|
| to automatically obtain IP settings that are connected to the Router |
|
|
|
| though the Ethernet port. When the Router is used for DHCP it becomes |
|
|
|
| the default gateway for DHCP client connected to it. Keep in mind that if |
|
|
|
| you change the IP address of the Router the range of IP addresses in |
|
|
|
| the pool used for DHCP on the LAN will also be changed. The IP address |
|
|
|
| pool can be up to 253 IP addresses. |
|
|
|
|

To manually configure IP settings on Windows workstations, open the TCP/IP Properties menu and select the “Use the following IP address” option. You will need to supply the IP addres, Subnet mask and Defualt
Note gateway (use IP address of DSL- 2740B) for each workstation. The example here also uses manually configured DNS settings.
