◆

MAC Address — The shared physical layer address for the 11n

Router’s LAN ports.

◆

DHCP Server — Enable this feature to assign IP settings to wired and

wireless clients connected to the 11n Router. The IP address, subnet

mask, default gateway, and Domain Name Server (DNS) address are

dynamically assigned to clients. (Options: Enable, Disable; Default:

Enable)

◆

Start/End IP Address — Specify the start and end IP addresses of a

range that the DHCP server can allocate to DHCP clients. Note that the

address pool range is always in the same subnet as the unit’s IP

setting. The maximum clients that the unit can support is 253.

◆

Primary DNS Server — The IP address of Domain Name Servers on

the network. A DNS maps numerical IP addresses to domain names

and can be used to identify network hosts by familiar names instead of

the IP addresses.

◆

Secondary DNS Server — The IP address of the Secondary Domain

Name Server on the network.

◆

Default Gateway — The default gateway is the IP address of the

router for the 11n Router, which is used if the requested destination

address is not on the local subnet.

◆

Lease Time — Select a time limit for the use of an IP address from the

IP pool. When the time limit expires, the client has to request a new IP

address. The lease time is expressed in seconds. (Options: Forever, Two

weeks, One week, Two days, One day, Half day, Two hours, One hour,

Half hour; Default: One week)

◆

Statically Assigned — Up to three devices with specific MAC

addresses can be assigned static IP addresses. That is, the DHCP server

always assigns these devices the same IP addresses.

discovery protocol which can be used for both wired and wireless

networks. (Options: Disable/Enable, Default: Enable)

messages to clients. Clients are then able to connect to the PPPoE

service through the WAN port. (Options: Disable/Enable, Default:
