WR3000 4-Port Wireless DSL/Cable Router

5.3DHCP Setup

DHCP (Dynamic Host Confi guration Protocol, RFC 2131 and RFC 2132) allows individual clients to obtain TCP/IP confi guration at start-up from a server. You can confi gure the WR3000 Wireless Router as a DHCP server or disable it. When confi gured as a server, the WR3000 Wireless Router provides the TCP/IP confi guration for the clients. If set to None, DHCP service will be disabled and you must have another DHCP server on your LAN, or else the computer must be manually confi gured.

5.4Factory LAN Defaults

The LAN parameters of the WR3000 Wireless Router are preset in the factory with the following values:

IP address of 192.168.150.1 with subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 (24 bits).

DHCP server enabled with 32 client IP addresses starting from 192.168.150.32.

IP Pool Setup

The WR3000 Wireless Router is pre-confi gured with a pool of 32 IP addresses starting from 192.168.150.32 to 192.168.150.44. This confi guration leaves 31 IP addresses (excluding the WR3000 Wireless Router itself) in the lower range for other server computers, for instance, serv- ers for mail, FTP, TFTP, web, etc., that you may have.

These parameters should work for the majority of installations. If your ISP gives you explicit DNS server address(es), read the embedded Web Confi guration Utility help regarding what fi elds need to be confi gured.

5.5 RIP Setup

RIP (Routing Information Protocol, RFC 1058 and RFC 1389) allows a router to exchange routing information with other routers. RIP Direction controls the sending and receiving of RIP packets. When set to:

1.Both - the WR3000 Wireless Router will broadcast its routing table periodically and incorporate the RIP information that it receives.

2.In Only - the WR3000 Wireless Router will not send any RIP packets but will accept all RIP packets received.

3.Out Only - the WR3000 Wireless Router will send out RIP packets but will not accept any RIP packets received.

4.None - the WR3000 Wireless Router will not send any RIP packets and will ignore any RIP

packets received.

RIP Version controls the format and the broadcasting method of the RIP packets that the WR3000 Wireless Router sends (it recognizes both formats when receiving). RIP-1is universally supported; but RIP-2carries more information. RIP-1 is probably adequate for most networks, unless you have an unusual network topology.

Both RIP-2Band RIP-2Msend routing data in RIP-2format; the difference being that RIP-2B uses subnet broadcasting while RIP-2M uses multicasting. Multicasting can reduce the load on non-router machines since they generally do not listen to the RIP multicast address and so will not receive the RIP packets. However, if one router uses multicasting, then all routers on your network must use multicasting, also.

By default, RIP Direction is set to Both and RIP Version to RIP-1.
