Configuring the LAN Port IP Address
41
If your network uses a DHCP server (other than the ADSL
Barricade)
to assign IP addresses, you can configure the device
to accept and use a LAN IP address assigned by that server.
Similarly, if your ISP
performs DHCP serving for your network, you
can configure
the device to accept an IP address assigned from
the ISP's server.
In this mode, the ADSL Barricade is considered
as a DHCP client of your DHCP (or ISP's) server.
Note:
The ADSL Barricade itself can function as a DHCP
server for your LAN computers, as described in
Configuring Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol,
but not for its own LAN port.
Follow the following steps to change the default LAN IP address
or to configure the LAN port as a DHCP client:
1.
Log into Configuration Manager and then click the [LAN] tab.
The [LAN Configuration] page appears.
