5.4 LAN TCP/IP
The ADSL Router has built-in DHCP server capability that assigns IP addresses
and DNS servers to systems that support DHCP client capability.
5.4.1 Factory LAN Defaults
The LAN parameters of the ADSL Router are preset in the factory with the
following values:
IP address of 192.168.1.254 with subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 (24 bits)
DHCP server enabled with 100 client IP addresses starting from 192.168.1.100.
These parameters should work for the majority of installations. If your ISP gives
you explicit DNS server address(es), read the embedded web configurator help
regarding what fields need to be configured.
5.4.2 IP Address and Subnet Mask
Refer to the IP Address and Subnet Mask section in the Wizard Setup chapter for
this information.
5.4.3 RIP Setup
RIP (Routing Information Protocol) allows a router to exchange routing
information with other routers. The RIP Direction field controls the sending and
receiving of RIP packets. When set to:
1. Both - the ADSL Router will broadcast its routing table periodically and
incorporate the RIP information that it receives.
2. In Only - the ADSL Router will not send any RIP packets but will accept all RIP
packets received.
3. Out Only - the ADSL Router will send out RIP packets but will not accept any
RIP packets received.
4. None - the ADSL Router will not send any RIP packets and will ignore any RIP
packets received.
The Version field controls the format and the broadcasting method of the RIP
packets that the ADSL Router sends (it recognizes both formats when receiving).
RIP-1 is universally supported; but RIP-2 carries more information. RIP-1 is
probably adequate for most networks, unless you have an unusual network
topology.
Both RIP-2B and RIP-2M sends the routing data in RIP-2 format; the difference
being that RIP-2B uses subnet broadcasting while RIP-2M uses multicasting.
