4.4.1.5 Static Connection Setup

Static is used whenever a known static IP is assigned. The accompanying information such as the Subnet mask and the gateway should also be specified. Up to three Domain Name Server (DNS) addresses can also be specified. These servers would enable you to have access to other web servers. Valid IP addresses range is from 0.0.0.0 to 255.255.255.255.

To configure the Lynx L-210 for a Static connection, click on Setup and then click on New Connection. The default Static connection setup is displayed. At the Type field select Static and the Static connection setup page is displayed; figure 8 illustrates a typical Static configuration. Give your Static connection a unique name; the name must not have spaces and cannot begin with numbers. In this case the unique name is called STATIC1. Select the encapsulation type (LLC or VC); if you are not sure just use the default mode. Select the VPI and VCI settings; your DSL service provider or your ISP will supply these; in this case the DSL service provider is using 0,35. Also select the quality of service (QOS); leave the default value if you are unsure or the ISP did not provide this information. You can also enable Network Address Translation (NAT) and the Firewall options. If you are unsure, leave these in the default mode.

Based upon the information your DSL/ISP provided, enter your assigned IP address, Subnet Mask, Default Gateway (if provided), and Domain Name Services (DNS) values (if provided). For the static configuration, you can also select a bridge connection or a routed connection. Since static IP address is typically used to host WEB servers, you may want to use a bridge connection.
