4 LAN
A local area network (LAN) is a shared communication system to which multiple devices are
attached.
When correctly configured, devices on the LAN can use the CPE to share data.
4.1 Setting LAN Host Parameters
By default, the IP address is 192.168.1.1 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. You can
change the host IP address to another individual IP address that is easy to remember. Make
sure that IP address is unique on your network. If you change the IP address of the CPE, you
need to access the web management page with the new IP address.
To change the IP address of the CPE, perform the following steps:
1. Choose LAN > DHCP Settings.
2. In the LAN Host Settings area, set IP address.
3. Set the DHCP server to Enable.
4. Click Submit.
----End
4.2 Configuring the DHCP Server
DHCP enables individual clients to automatically obtain TCP/IP configuration when the
server powers on.
You can configure the CPE as a DHCP server or disable it when the CPE is working in the
routing mode.
When configured as a DHCP server, the CPE automatically provides the TCP/IP configuration
for the LAN clients that support DHCP client capabilities. If DHCP server services are
disabled, you must have another DHCP server on your LAN, or each client must be manually
configured.
To configure DHCP settings, perform the following steps:
1. Choose LAN > DHCP Settings.
2. Set the DHCP server to Enable.
3. Set Start IP address.
This IP address must be different from the IP address set on the LAN Host Settings
