LAN Configuration

This screen contains the setting that controls how the Router interacts with the local devices connected to the Router. Westell does not recommend that you change these settings. The following settings are displayed.

	LAN Configuration
Router IP Address	This controls the IP address that the Router uses for local communication.
Subnet Mask	This setting specifies the subnet mask to use to determine if an IP address
	belongs to your local network.
DHCP Start Address	This setting specifies the start of the IP address pool that the Router uses to
	assign IP addresses to local devices.
DHCP End Address	This setting specifies the end address of the IP address pool used for automatic
	configuration of local devices.
DNS Server Enable	DNS stands for Domain Name System. This is an Internet standard that
	facilitates communication among devices. This allows a name to be used when
	specifying a device instead of an IP address. Normally you want this enabled.
DHCP Server Enable	DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. This is an Internet
	standard that allows the Router to automatically assign IP addresses to devices
	connected on the LAN network. It is advised that this option is set to Enabled.
