N300 Wireless Dual Band ADSL2+ Modem Router DGND3300v2 User Manual
Using the N300 Wireless Modem Router as a DHCP Server
By default, the N300 wireless modem router functions as a DHCP server, allowing it to assign
IP, DNS server, and default gateway addresses to all computers connected to the N300
wireless modem router’s LAN. The assigned default gateway address is the LAN address of
the N300 wireless modem router. The N300 wireless modem router assigns IP addresses to
LAN TCP/IP
Setup
IP Address
The LAN IP address of the N300 wireless modem router.
IP Subnet Mask
The LAN subnet mask of the N300 wireless modem router.
Combined with the IP address, the IP subnet mask allows a
device to know which other addresses are local to it, and
which must be reached through a gateway or N300 wireless
modem router.
RIP Direction
RIP (Router Information Protocol) allows the N300 wireless
modem router to exchange routing information with other
routers. This setting controls how the N300 wireless modem
router sends and receives RIP packets. Both is the default.
•
Both
or
Out Only
. The N300 wireless modem router
broadcasts its routing table periodically.
•
Both
or
In Only
. The N300 wireless modem router
incorporates the RIP information that it receives.
•
None
. The N300 wireless modem router will not send any
RIP packets and will ignore any RIP packets received.
RIP Version
This controls the format and the broadcasting method of the
RIP packets that the N300 wireless modem router sends. It
recognizes both formats when receiving. By default, this is
RIP-1.
• RIP-1 is universally supported. It is adequate for most
networks, unless you have an unusual network setup.
• RIP-2 carries more information. Both RIP-2B and RIP-2M
send the routing data in RIP-2 format. RIP-2B uses subnet
broadcasting. RIP-2M uses multicasting.
DHCP Server
Use Router as a DHCP
Server
This check box is usually selected so that the N300 wireless
modem router functions as a Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol (DHCP) server. See
Using the N300 Wireless
Modem Router as a DHCP Server
on page
114.
Starting IP Address
Specify the start of the range for the pool of IP addresses in
the same subnet as the N300 wireless modem router.
Ending IP Address
Specify the end of the range for the pool of IP addresses in the
same subnet as the N300 wireless modem router.
Address Reservation
For more information, see
Address Reservation
on page
115.
When you specify a reserved IP address for a computer on
the LAN, that computer receives the same IP address each
time it accesses the N300 wireless modem router’s DHCP
server. Assign reserved IP addresses to servers that require
permanent IP settings.
