To configure the LAN Interface of the SnapGear appliance, select either a dynamically or statically assigned IP address. If the LAN interface of your SnapGear appliance gets its IP address from a DHCP server on your local network, then check DHCP assigned.
For a static IP address on the LAN interface, enter the IP Address and Netmask in the fields provided. You must enter a static IP address if the SnapGear appliance will act as the DHCP server on your local network.
