such as Routing mode, Bridging mode, or both modes
simultaneously. See Chapter 6 for information on the
system operating modes.
Get LAN
Address
Provides options for how the device’s LAN interface is
assigned an IP address:
o
Manual indicates that you will be assigning a
static IP address, which you can enter in the
fields below.
o
External DHCP Server indicates that your ISP will
be assigning an IP address from their own DHCP
server, dynamically each time you log on.
o
Internal DHCP Server indicates that you have a
DHCP server device on your network that will
assign an address to the port.
If you choose either the internal or external server
option, the LAN interface is called a DHCP client of
the server.
Note that the public IP address assigned to you by
your ISP is not your LAN IP address. The public IP
address identifies the WAN (ADSL) port on your
ADSL/ADSL2+ Ethernet Modem Router to the
Internet. (Or, in bridge configurations, it may be
assigned to your PC.)
LAN IP
Address and
Network Mask
The IP address and network mask for the port. See
Appendix A for and overview of IP addresses and
masks.
