Setting Up the Access Point in Your LAN
The following table lists out the parameters relevant to your LAN setup.
You can replace the default settings with appropriate values to suit the
needs of your LAN.
LAN Parameters Description
IP Address
The IP address of the access point is 192.168.168.1 by
default.
When the DHCP server of the access point is enabled, this
LAN <IP address> would be allocated as the Default
Gateway of the DHCP client unless you set a different
<DHCP Gateway IP address>
Network Mask
The Network Mask identifies the subnet in which the
access point resides.
The default network mask is 255.255.255.0.
The next two fields (DHCP Start IP Address and DHCP End IP Address) allow you
to define the range of IP addresses from which the DHCP Server can assign an
IP address to the LAN.
DHCP Start IP
Address
This is the first IP address that the DHCP server will assign.
The value you enter should belong to the same subnet as
the access point.
For example if the IP address and network mask of your
access point are 192.168.168.1 and 255.255.255.0
respectively, the DHCP Start IP Address should be
192.168.168.X where X is any value from 2 to 254.
It is preset to 192.168.168.100.
DHCP End IP
Address
This is the last IP address that the DHCP server can assign.
The value you enter should also belong to the same
subnet as the access point.
For example if the IP address and network mask of the
access
p
oint are 192.168.168.1 and 255.255.255.0
