IP address

A unique 32-bit value that identifies each host on a TCP/IP network. TCP/IP networks route messages

 

based on the destination IP address. An IP address has two parts:

 

The network address is assigned by IANA.

 

The SBG900 network administrator assigns a host address to each host connected to the SBG900,

 

automatically using its DHCP server or as a static IP address.

 

For a Class C network, the first 24 bits are the network address and the final 8 bits are the host

 

address; in dotted-decimal format it appears “network.network.network.host.”

 

If you enable the SBG900 DHCP client on the WAN page, the cable service provider automatically

 

assigns the network address, subnet mask, domain name, and DNS server to provide a continuous

 

Internet connection.

IPSec

The Internet Protocol Security protocols are IETF authentication and encryption standards for secure

 

packet exchange over the Internet. IPSec works at OSI layer 3 and secures everything on the

 

network.

with a view to facilitating the international exchange of goods and services, and to developing

 

cooperation in the spheres of intellectual, scientific, technological, and economic activity.
