These addresses are part of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF)-designated private address
range for use in private networks, and should be suitable in most applications. If your network has
a requirement to use a different IP addressing scheme, you can make those changes in this menu.
The LAN TCP/IP Setup parameters are:
IP Address
This is the LAN IP address of the modem router.
IP Subnet Mask
This is the LAN Subnet Mask of the modem router. Combined with the IP address, the IP
Subnet Mask allows a device to know which other addresses are local to it, and which must be
reached through a gateway or modem router.
RIP Direction
RIP (Router Information Protocol) allows a modem router to exchange routing information
with other routers. The RIP Direction selection controls how the Modem Router sends and
receives RIP packets. Both is the default.
When set to Both or Out Only, the modem router will broadcast its routing table
periodically.
When set to Both or In Only, it will incorporate the RIP information that it receives.
When set to None, it will not send any RIP packets and will ignore any RIP packets
received.
