DESCRIPTION

IP Address

Enter the LAN IP address you want to assign to your GPON 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 GPON 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.
