System configuration features

The Netopia R910 Ethernet Router’s default settings may be all you need to configure your Netopia R910.
Some users, however, require advanced settings or prefer manual control over the default selections. For these
users, the Netopia R910 provides system configuration options.

To help you determine whether you need to use the system configuration options, review the following
requirements. If you have one or more of these needs, use the system configuration options described in later
chapters.

System configuration of dynamic IP address distribution through DHCP or BootP

Greater network security through the use of filters

To access the system configuration screens, select System Configuration in the Main Menu, then press
Return.

The System Configuration menu screen appears:

Return/Enter to configure Networking Protocols (such as TCP/IP).
