Link: LAN

*Enable Interface: Enables all LAN-connected computers to share resources and to con- nect to the WAN. The Interface should always be enabled unless you are instructed to dis- able it by your Service Provider during troubleshooting.

*IP Address: The LAN IP Address of the Gateway. The IP Address you assign to your LAN interface must not be used by another device on your LAN network.

*IP Netmask: Specifies the subnet mask for the TCP/IP network connected to the virtual circuit. The subnet mask specifies which bits of the 32-bit binary IP address represent net- work information. The default subnet mask for most networks is 255.255.255.0 (Class C subnet mask.)

*Restrictions: Specifies whether an administrator can open a Web Administrator or Telnet connection to the Gateway over the LAN interface in order to monitor and configure the Gateway. On the LAN Interface, you can enable or disable administrator access. By default, administrative restrictions are turned off, meaning an administrator can open a Web Administrator or Telnet connection through the LAN Interface.
