IP Setup

The IP Setup options screen is where you configure the Ethernet side of the Netopia R9100. The information you enter here controls how the router routes IP traffic.

Consult your network administrator or Internet service provider to obtain the IP setup information (such as the Ethernet IP address, Ethernet subnet mask, default IP gateway and Primary Domain Name Server IP address) you will need before changing any of the settings in this screen. Changes made in this screen will take effect only after the Netopia R9100 is reset.

To go to the IP Setup options screen, from the Main Menu, select System Configuration then Network Protocols Setup, and then IP Setup.

The IP Setup screen appears.

Enter an IP address in decimal and dot form (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx).

Set up the basic IP attributes of your Netopia in this screen.

Follow these steps to configure IP Setup for your Netopia R9100:

Select Ethernet IP Address and enter the IP address for the Netopia R9100’s Ethernet port.

Select Ethernet Subnet Mask and enter the subnet mask for the Ethernet IP address that you entered in the last step.

For unlimited-user models, if you desire multiple subnets select Define Additional Subnets. 12-user models do not offer this option. If you select this item you will be taken to the IP Subnets screen. This screen allows you to define IP addresses and masks for additional subnets. See “IP subnets” on page 9-10for details.
