IP Config
Click the IP Config option on the left panel to
display its submenus. The IP Config submenus
provide options for your LAN and DHCP set-
tings as described in the following sections.
LAN
The LAN menu page has the following settings:
Get IP Automatically: Select Yes (default) or No to get an IP
address automatically from a DHCP server.
If you select Yes , this means that the ASUS WL-HDD2.5 will send
out a DHCP request during bootup. If you have a DHCP (Dynamic
Host Configuration Protocol) server on the network, set this option so
that the ASUS WL-HDD2.5 can receive an automatic IP address and
subnet mask assignment. The DHCP server automatically assigns the
ASUS WL-HDD2.5 an IP address when it is powered up. To deter-
mine what settings have been assigned to the ASUS WL-HDD2.5,
check the Status page (see “Status” on page 70).
If you select No, the ASUS WL-HDD2.5 accepts a static IP address.
You can manually configure the IP address and subnet mask in this
case. Enter an IP address and a subnet mask in the field provided to
assign the ASUS WL-HDD2.5 a static IP address. If you don’t know
your Gateway setting, leave it empty (not 0.0.0.0).
