Chapter 9 LAN

9.3 What You Need To Know

The LAN parameters of the NBG-460N are preset in the factory with the following values:

IP address of 192.168.1.1 with subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 (24 bits)

DHCP server enabled with 32 client IP addresses starting from 192.168.1.33.

These parameters should work for the majority of installations. If your ISP gives you explicit DNS server address(es), read the embedded Web Configurator help regarding what fields need to be configured.

9.3.1 IP Pool Setup

The NBG-460N is pre-configured with a pool of 32 IP addresses starting from 192.168.1.33 to 192.168.1.64. This configuration leaves 31 IP addresses (excluding the NBG-460N itself) in the lower range (192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.32) for other server computers, for instance, servers for mail, FTP, TFTP, web, etc., that you may have.

Refer to Section 4.4.6 on page 60 for information on IP Address and Subnet Mask.

9.3.2 LAN TCP/IP

The NBG-460N has built-in DHCP server capability that assigns IP addresses and DNS servers to systems that support DHCP client capability.

Refer to the Section 4.4.7 on page 61 section for information on System DNS Servers.
