The modem is preconfigured with IP address 10.0.0.138

The default IP address can be changed to a different address

The modem can be automatically configured via BOOTP

The modem supports logical multi-homing

Note:

Local configuration is only possible through the Ethernet interface of the modem.

IP Parameters

The IP address used for local connection is limited to the private local network. The IP address must be compatible with your local network and must be unique in that network.

Note:

For tunneling via PPTP, a second set of IP addresses is automatically negotiated to establish an end-to-end connection.

The following example configurations are described:

A single PC connected to the modem

A small network of PCs (workgroup) connected to the modem

Advanced configurations using BOOTP to distribute parameters and using routers to create complex networks

Subnetmask and Default Gateway Parameters

The Subnetmask and Default Gateway parameters are used only if the local network is configured with an IP router.

The Default Gateway parameter is set to none and the Subnetmask parameter reverts to the default netmask for the IP address class. Table I lists the default netmasks of the different IP address classes.
