Configuring LAN IP Settings

The LAN IP Setup screen allows configuration of LAN IP services such as DHCP and RIP.
The modem router is shipped preconfigured to use private IP addresses on the LAN side, and to act
as a DHCP server. The modem router's default LAN IP configuration is as follows:
• LAN IP address. 192.168.0.1
• Subnet mask. 255.255.255.0
These addresses are part of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF)–designated private address
range for use in private networks, and should be suitable in most applications. If your network has
a requirement to use a different IP addressing scheme, you can make those changes by opening the
LAN IP Setup menu.
Under Advanced in the main menu, select LAN IP Setup.
Figure 5-2
The LAN TCP/IP Setup settings are:
• IP Address. This is the LAN IP address of the modem router.
• IP Subnet Mask. This is the LAN subnet mask of the modem router. Combined with the IP
address, the IP subnet mask allows a device to know which other addresses are local to it, and
which must be reached through a gateway or modem router.
