VIP Mode
This feature is used in conjunction with Unnumbered Mode. When
VIP
Mode is acti-
vated, the Modem uses
NAT
for private
IP
addressing for the local area network (
LAN
),
allowing both public
IP
addressing and private
IP
addressing to be configured to the
LAN
simultaneously, while the
DHCP
server is reserved for private
IP
addressing. All
computers using public
IP
addresses with Unnumbered Mode must have the public
IP
addresses statically assigned.
