Static IP Settings for the LAN

If you want to fix an IP address to a specific MAC address on your LAN, use the Static IP Assignment feature located on the DHCP settings menu. Up to 5 static IP addresses may be configured.

To assign an IP address that will not age out, type in the MAC address of the device and its static IP address in the spaces provided. Use the format: 00-20-E0-62-B9-EB for the MAC address and the standard format: 192.168.1.33 for the IP address.

Disable the DHCP Server

To disable DHCP, click to select the No DHCP option and click on the Apply button. Choosing this option requires that workstations on the local network must be configured manually or use another DHCP server to obtain IP settings.

If you configure IP settings manually, make sure to use IP addresses in the subnet of the Router. You will need to use the Router’s IP address as the Default Gateway for the workstation in order to provide Internet access.

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 address, Subnet mask and Defualt gateway for each workstation. The example here also uses manually configured DNS settings.
