DNS IP Address
Enter the ISP’s DNS IP address. You may enter up to 4 ISP DNS IP addresses. Click Insert.
IP Address Pool
The IP Address Pool contains the range of IP addresses that will be automatically assigned to the
clients of your network as they connect to the network. By default, the IP address pool range is
from 100 to 200. Ranges are listed in the IP Address Pool table.
To change the range, select the existing range of addresses. Enter a new range. Press Insert.
To delete an IP Address range, select the range of addresses. Press Delete.
IP Address Mapping Reservation
You can use the IP Address Mapping Reservation option to give a static IP address to particular
computers on your network. Each time a computer is powered on and connects to the network, it
will receive the same IP address. Static IP addresses are frequently assigned to network
resources such as printers, servers, hubs and routers that are consistently shared by network
clients.
To assign a static IP Address, enter the MAC address manually or use the MAC address search
tool. To use the MAC address search tool, enter the IP address of the computer. Click Search to
find the MAC address. Once the address has been located, click Add to reserve the address.
To delete a static IP Address, select the static address you want to delete. Click Delete.
Refer to the User Guide Glossary for information about determining a computer’s netmask
address.
Routing Settings
Routing is the process of moving a packet of data from source to destination. The RF102S acts as a
router to enable messages to pass from one computer to another and eventually reach the target
machine. Part of this process involves analyzing a routing table to determine the best path. Use the
information below to create a routing table to connect your network to another network, or to connect
subnets within your network.
Note: A routing table is required to use the LAN -to- LAN routing function of the RF102S.
