N600 Wireless Dual Band Router WNDR3400 User Manual Table 5-1. LAN Setup Settings LAN TCP/IP Setup IP Address IP Subnet Mask RIP Direction RIP Version DHCP Server For more information Use Router as a DHCP Server Starting IP Address Ending IP Address Address Reservation For more information, see "Address Reservation" on page 5-4. Description The LAN IP address of the wireless router. The LAN subnet mask of the wireless 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 wireless router. RIP (Router Information Protocol) allows a wireless router to exchange routing information with other routers. This setting controls how the wireless router sends and receives RIP packets. Both is the default. • Both or Out Only. The wireless router broadcasts its routing table periodically. • Both or In Only. The wireless router incorporates the RIP information that it receives. This controls the format and the broadcasting method of the RIP packets that the wireless router sends. It recognizes both formats when receiving. By default, the RIP function is disabled. • 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. This check box is usually selected so that the wireless router functions as a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server. See "Using the Router as a DHCP Server" on page 5-4. Specify the start of the range for the pool of IP addresses in the same subnet as the wireless router. Specify the end of the range for the pool of IP addresses in the same subnet as the wireless router. When you specify a reserved IP address for a computer on the LAN, that computer receives the same IP address each time it access the router's DHCP server. Assign reserved IP addresses to servers that require permanent IP settings. Customizing Your Network Settings 5-3 v1.0, August 2010
