DESCRIPTION

Router Local IP

 

 

 

IP Address

Enter the LAN IP address you want to assign to your ZyXEL Device in dotted

 

decimal notation, for example, 192.168.1.1 (factory default).

 

 

IP Subnet Mask

Type the subnet mask of your network in dotted decimal notation, for example

 

255.255.255.0 (factory default). Your ZyXEL Device automatically computes the

 

subnet mask based on the IP Address you enter, so do not change this field

 

unless you are instructed to do so.

 

 

Dynamic Route

RIP (Routing Information Protocol) allows a router to exchange routing

 

information with other routers.

 

Select the RIP version from RIP1, RIP2-Band RIP2-M.

 

 

Direction

Use this field to control how much routing information the ZyXEL Device sends

 

and receives on the subnet.

 

Select the RIP direction from None, Both, IN Only and OUT Only.

 

 

Multicast

Multicast packets are sent to a group of computers on the LAN and are an

 

alternative to unicast packets (packets sent to one computer) and broadcast

 

packets (packets sent to every computer).

 

IGMP is a network-layer protocol used to establish membership in a multicast

 

group. The ZyXEL Device supports IGMP v1, IGMP v2 and IGMP v3. Select

 

Disabled to turn off the feature.

 

 

DHCP

 

 

 

DHCP

If set to Enabled, your ZyXEL Device can assign IP addresses, an IP default

 

gateway and DNS servers to operating systems that support the DHCP client.

 

If set to Disabled, the DHCP server will be disabled.

 

If set to Relay, the ZyXEL Device acts as a surrogate DHCP server and relays

 

DHCP requests and responses between the remote server and the clients.

 

 

DHCP Server

 

 

 

Starting IP Address

This field specifies the first of the contiguous addresses in the IP address pool.
