IP Address |
|
Assignment |
|
|
|
Get | Select this if this interface is a DHCP client. In this case, the DHCP server |
Automatically | configures the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway automatically. |
|
|
Use Fixed IP | Select this if you want to specify the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway |
Address | manually. |
|
|
IP Address | This field is enabled if you select Use Fixed IP Address. |
| Enter the IP address for this interface. |
|
|
Subnet Mask | This field is enabled if you select Use Fixed IP Address. |
| Enter the subnet mask of this interface in dot decimal notation. The subnet |
| mask indicates what part of the IP address is the same for all computers in the |
| network. |
|
|
Gateway | This field is enabled if you select Use Fixed IP Address. |
| Enter the IP address of the gateway. The ZyWALL sends packets to the |
| gateway when it does not know how to route the packet to its destination. The |
| gateway should be on the same network as the interface. |
|
|
Metric | Enter the priority of the gateway (if any) on this interface. The ZyWALL decides |
| which gateway to use based on this priority. The lower the number, the higher |
| the priority. If two or more gateways have the same priority, the ZyWALL uses |
| the one that was configured first. |
