TCP/IP

IP Address	IP address for VRT-401, as seen from the local LAN. Use the
	default value unless the address is already in use or your LAN is
	using a different IP address range. In the latter case, enter an
	unused IP Address from within the range used by your LAN.
Subnet Mask	The default value 255.255.255.0 is standard for small (class "C")
	networks. For other networks, use the Subnet Mask for the LAN
	segment to which VRT-401 is attached (the same value as the
	PCs on that LAN segment).
DHCP Server	∙ If Enabled, VRT-401 will allocate IP Addresses to PCs
	(DHCP clients) on your LAN when they start up. The default
	(and recommended) value is Enabled.
	∙ If you are already using a DHCP Server, this setting must be
	Disabled, and the existing DHCP server must be re-
	configured to treat VRT-401 as the default Gateway. See the
	following section for further details.
	∙ The Start IP Address and Finish IP Address fields set the
	values used by the DHCP server when allocating IP Ad-
	dresses to DHCP clients. This range also determines the
	number of DHCP clients supported.
	See the following section for further details on using DHCP.
