LABEL DESCRIPTION
Get from
DHCP Server
Select this option to allow the NBG-460N to obtain an IP address from a
DHCP server on the network. You must connect the WAN port to a device
with a DHCP server enabled (such as a router or gateway). Without a
DHCP server the NBG-460N will have no IP address. You need to find out
the IP address the DHCP server assigns to the NBG-460N and use that
address to log in to the NBG-460N again.
User Defined
LAN IP
Select this option to set the NBG-460N’s IP address. This setting is
selected by default. Check the IP address is on the same domain as other
devices on your network.
IP Address Type the IP address in dotted decimal notation. The default setting is
192.168.1.1. If you change the IP address you will have to log in again
with the new IP address.
IP Subnet
Mask
The subnet mask specifies the network number portion of an IP address.
Your NBG-460N will automatically calculate the subnet mask based on the
IP address that you assign. Unless you are implementing subnetting, use
the subnet mask computed by the NBG-460N.
Gateway IP
Address
Type the IP address of the gateway. The gateway is an immediate
neighbor of your NBG-460N that will forward the packet to the destination.
In AP Mode, the gateway must be a router on the same segment as your
NBG-460N.
DNS Servers
First DNS
Server
Second DNS
Server
Third DNS
Server
Select From ISP if your ISP dynamically assigns DNS server information.
The field to the right displays the (read-only) DNS server IP address that
the ISP assigns.
Select User-Defined if you have the IP address of a DNS server. Enter
the DNS server's IP address in the field to the right. If you chose User-
Defined, but leave the IP address set to 0.0.0.0, User-Defined changes
to None after you click Apply. If you set a second choice to User-
Defined, and enter the same IP address, the second User-Defined
changes to None after you click Apply.
Select None if you do not want to configure DNS servers. If you do not
configure a DNS server, you must know the IP address of a computer in
order to access it.
Apply Click Apply to save your changes to the NBG-460N.
Reset Click Reset to reload the previous configuration for this screen.
