DESCRIPTION

Get from

Select this option to allow the NBG-460N to obtain an IP address from a

DHCP Server

DHCP server on the network. You must connect the WAN port to a device

 

with a DHCP server enabled (such as a router or gateway). Without a

 

DHCP server the NBG-460N will have no IP address. You need to find out

 

the IP address the DHCP server assigns to the NBG-460N and use that

 

address to log in to the NBG-460N again.

 

 

User Defined

Select this option to set the NBG-460N’s IP address. This setting is

LAN IP

selected by default. Check the IP address is on the same domain as other

 

devices on your network.

 

 

IP Address

Type the IP address in dotted decimal notation. The default setting is

 

192.168.1.1. If you change the IP address you will have to log in again

 

with the new IP address.

 

 

IP Subnet

The subnet mask specifies the network number portion of an IP address.

Mask

Your NBG-460N will automatically calculate the subnet mask based on the

 

IP address that you assign. Unless you are implementing subnetting, use

 

the subnet mask computed by the NBG-460N.

 

 

Gateway IP

Type the IP address of the gateway. The gateway is an immediate

Address

neighbor of your NBG-460N that will forward the packet to the destination.

 

In AP Mode, the gateway must be a router on the same segment as your

 

NBG-460N.
