Configuring the CheetahAccess Internet Gateway
4-7
Dynamic IP Address – DHCP
The Host Name is optional, but may be required by some ISPs. The default MAC
address is set to the WAN’s physical interface on the CheetahAccess Internet
Gateway. Use this address when registering for Internet service, and do not change
it unless required to by your ISP. You can use the “Clone MAC Address” button to
copy the MAC address of the Ethernet Card installed by your ISP (in your PC) and
replace the WAN MAC address with this MAC address.
Static IP Address – Fixed IP
If your Internet Service Provider has assigned a fixed address, enter the assigned
address and subnet mask for the CheetahAccess Internet Gateway, then enter the
gateway address of your ISP.
Note: You may need a fixed address if you want to provide Internet services, such as
a Web server or FTP server.
