Netopia PN Series Network Router User Manual


 
IP Setup 4-17
The third protocol, called IPCP, is part of the PPP/MP suite of
wide area protocols used for ISDN WAN connections. It allows
remote terminal adapters and NAT-enabled routers to be
assigned a temporary IP address for the duration of their
connection.
The fourth protocol, called MacIP, is used only for computers
on AppleTalk networks. MacIP provides a protocol translation
(or gateway) function between IP and AppleTalk as well as an IP
address assignment mechanism. Like DHCP, MacIP address
assignments are normally temporary, although you may also
use static IP addresses with MacIP.
Since no two hosts can use the same IP address at the same time,
make sure that the addresses distributed by the Netopia Router,
and those that are manually configured are not the same. Each
method of distribution must have its own exclusive range of
addresses to draw from.
To go to the IP Address Serving screen, select IP Address Serving
in the Advanced Configuration screen and press Return.
