Viewing System IP Addresses and IP
Performance Statistics
The interfaces on the ROUTER that communicate with other network and Internet devices
are identified by unique Internet protocol (IP) addresses. You can use the Configuration
Manager to view the list of IP addresses that your device uses, and to view other system
and network performance data.
See Appendix 0 for a description of IP addresses and masks.
Viewing the ROUTER’s IP Addresses
To view the ROUTER’s IP addresses, click the Routing tab, and then click IP Addr in the task
bar. The IP Address Table page displays, as shown in Figure 20:
Figure 20. IP Address Table Page
The table lists the IP addresses, network masks (“Net Mask”), and interface names (“IF
Name”) for each of its IP-enabled interfaces.
The listed IP addresses may include:
fThe IP address of the device’s LAN (Ethernet) port,
called eth-0. See Chapter 0 for instructions on
configuring this address.
fThe IP address of the device’s USB port, named usb-
0. See Chapter 0 for instructions on configuring this
address.
fThe IP address of the WAN (ADSL line) interface,
which your ISP and other external devices use to
identify your network. It may be identified in the
Configuration Manager by the names ppp-0, eoa-0,
or ipoa-0, depending on the protocol your device
uses to communicate with your ISP. Your ISP may
assign the same address each time, or it may change
each time you reconnect.
fThe “loopback” IP address, named lo-0, of
127.0.0.1. This special address enables the device to
keep any data addressed directly to it, rather than
route the data through the WAN or LAN ports.
If your device has additional IP-enabled interfaces, the IP addresses of these will also display.
