3.5 Network

Use this menu to configure the network to connect the device and the clients.

3.5.1 Network

This section provides the menu of connecting the device through Ethernet cable.

MAC address:	Display the Ethernet MAC address of the device. Note that user
	cannot change it.
Obtain an IP	DHCP: Stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. Enable this
address	checked box when a DHCP server is installed on the network to issue
automatically	IP address assignment. With this setting, the IP address is assigned
(DHCP):	automatically. If this device cannot get an IP address within limited
	tries, the device will assign a default IP address, 192.168.0.20, by
	itself as the default IP address.
IP address,	If you do not select Obtain an IP address automatically, then you need
Subnet mask,	to enter these network parameters by yourself.

IP Address:	This address is a unique numbers that identifies a computer or device
	on the WAN or LAN. These numbers are usually shown in groups
	separated by periods, for example: 192.168.0.200
Subnet Mask:	Subnets allow network traffic between hosts to be separated based on
	the network's configuration. In IP networking, traffic takes the form of
	packets. IP subnets advance network security and performance to
	some level by organizing hosts into logical groups. Subnet masks
	contain four bytes and usually appear in the same "dotted decimal"
	data. For example, a very common subnet mask in its binary
	demonstration 11111111 11111111 11111111 00000000 will usually be
