DESCRIPTION

IP Address setting

Obtain an IP Address

Automatically (DHCP)

When you enable this, the NBG6818 gets its IP address from the network’s DHCP server

(for example, your ISP). Users connected to the NBG6818 can now access the network

(i.e., the Internet if the IP address is given by the ISP).

The Web Configurator may no longer be accessible unless you know the IP address

assigned by the DHCP server to the NBG6818. You need to reset the NBG6818 to be

able to access the Web Configurator again (see

Section 13.6 on page 136

for details

on how to reset the NBG6818).

Also when you select this, you cannot enter an IP address for your NBG6818 in the field

below.

Static IP Address

Click this if you want to specify the IP address of your NBG6818. Or if your ISP or network

administrator gave you a static IP address to access the network or the Internet.

IP Address

Type the IP address in dotted decimal notation. The default setting is 192.168.1.2. If you

change the IP address you will have to log in again with the new IP address.

Subnet Mask

The subnet mask specifies the network number portion of an IP address. Your NBG6818

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

NBG6818.

Gateway

Enter a gateway IP address (if your ISP or network administrator gave you one) in this

field.

DNS Server

First DNS Server

Second DNS Server

Third DNS Server

Select

Obtained From ISP

if your ISP dynamically assigns DNS server information (and

the NBG6818's WAN IP address). The field to the right displays the (read-only) DNS server

IP address that the ISP assigns.

Select

User-Defined

if you have the IP address of a DNS server. Enter the DNS server's IP

address in the field to the right. If you chose

User-Defined

, but leave the IP address set

to 0.0.0.0,

User-Defined

changes to

None

after you click

Apply

. If you set a second

choice to

User-Defined

, and enter the same IP address, the second

User-Defined

changes to

None

after you click

Apply

.

Select

None

if you do not want to configure DNS servers. If you do not configure a DNS

server, you must know the IP address of a computer in order to access it.

Apply

Click

Apply

to save your changes to the NBG6818.

Cancel

Click

Cancel

to reload the previous configuration for this screen.
