Appendix B IP Addresses and Subnetting The following table is a summary for subnet planning on a network with a 16-bit network number. Table 62 16-bit Network Number Subnet Planning NO.

If the ISP or your network administrator assigns you a block of registered IP addresses, follow their instructions in selecting the IP addresses and the subnet mask. If the ISP did not explicitly give you an IP network number, then most likely you have a single user account and the ISP will assign you a dynamic IP address when the connection is established. If this is the case, it is recommended that you select a network number from 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.0. The Internet Assigned Number Authority (IANA) reserved this block of addresses specifically for private use; please do not use any other number unless you are told otherwise. You must also enable Network Address Translation (NAT) on the WAP3205. Once you have decided on the network number, pick an IP address for your WAP3205 that is easy to remember (for instance, 192.168.1.1) but make sure that no other device on your network is using that IP address. The subnet mask specifies the network number portion of an IP address. Your WAP3205 will compute the subnet mask automatically based on the IP address WAP3205 User's Guide 147
