LAN IP Configuration:
IP address - for the Dual WAN VPN Firewall, as seen from the local LAN. Use the
default value unless the address is already in use or your LAN is using a different IP
address range. In the latter case, enter an unused IP Address from within the range used
by your LAN.
Subnet Mask -The default value 255.255.255.0 is standard for small (class "C")
networks. For other networks, use the Subnet Mask for the LAN segment to which the
Dual WAN VPN Firewall is attached (the same value as the PCs on that LAN).
DHCP server configuration :
DHCP Server Setup - If enabled, the Dual WAN VPN Firewall will allocate IP
Addresses to PCs (DHCP clients) on your LAN when they start up. The default and
recommended value is "Enable". (Windows Systems, by default, act as DHCP clients. This
setting is called Obtain an IP address automatically.)
DHCP Server Setup - If you are already using a DHCP Server, the DHCP Server
setting must be disabled, and the existing DHCP server must be set to provide the IP
address of the VPN Dual WAN VPN Firewall as the Default Gateway.
Client Lease Time – This is the period of time that a DHCP server leases an IP address
to a DHCP client.
DHCP IP address range
Offered Range fields set the values used by the DHCP server when allocating IP
Addresses to DHCP clients. This range also determines the number of DHCP clients
supported.
Free Entries indicates how many DHCP entries are not currently allocated, and
available.
ARP Proxy
Enable this ONLY if the LAN port has an IP address in the same address range as the
WAN port(s). This means that all PCs using this Gateway must have valid fixed
external (Internet) IP addresses. If enabled, enter the IP address range used on your
LAN.
LAN Any IP Setup
The default is disabled. If you enable “LAN ANY IP”, that means no matter what static IP
address your client has, the client does not need to change their IP address to access the Internet.
This is normally used when the client is on a different IP segment than the LAN segment.
