Chapter 6 AP Mode The following table describes the labels in this screen. Table 27 Network > LAN > IP LABEL DESCRIPTION Get from DHCP Server Select this option to allow the NBG-460N to obtain an IP address from a 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 Mask The subnet mask specifies the network number portion of an IP address. 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 Address Type the IP address of the gateway. The gateway is an immediate 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. DNS Servers First DNS Server Second DNS Server Third DNS Server Select From ISP if your ISP dynamically assigns DNS server information. 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 UserDefined, 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 UserDefined, and enter the same IP address, the second User-Defined changes to None after you click Apply. Apply Reset 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. Click Apply to save your changes to the NBG-460N. Click Reset to reload the previous configuration for this screen. The table below describes the labels in the screen. 6.4.2 WLAN and Maintenance Settings The configuration of wireless and maintenance settings in AP Mode is the same as for Router Mode. • See Chapter 5 on page 69 for information on the configuring your wireless network.
