DSL-504G ADSL Router User's Guide Save Router Configuration Settings When you have completed configuration of the Router, make sure you save the current configuration settings to flash memory or risk losing the settings. To save the current configuration settings, click the Misc. menu button to view the Miscellaneous Configuration menu and click the Save and Reboot button. The current settings will be saved to NV-RAM and the system will restart. Do not turn off the Router during this process. It should take about two minutes to complete. After restarting, it is a good idea to backup the Router configuration file to your computer. See the instructions below to save configuration files to your PC. Figure 4- 16. Miscellaneous Configuration Menu Other functions available in this menu are a Ping test and IGMP enable/disable. Ping Test The Ping test functions on the WAN and LAN interfaces. Type the IP address you want to check in the space provided and click the Ping button. Read the Ping test result in the space immediately below. IGMP This is Disabled by default. This setting will not allow IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) packets to be forwarded to the LAN. IGMP is used to manage multicasting on TCP/IP networks, most users will not need to enable this. Some ISPs use IGMP to perform remote configuration for client devices, such as the Router. If you are unsure, check with your ISP. To enable IGMP service to the LAN interface, select Enabled and click the Apply button. 50
