This tab provides settings and information about the device's local area network (LAN).
IP address:The IP address for this device, as seen from the primar local network. Normally, you can use the default value.
Subnet mask: The subnet mask primary network setting for this device. The default value 255.255.255.0 is standard for small (class "C") networks. If you change the LAN IP Address, make sure to use the correct Subnet Mask for the IP address range of the LAN IP address.
MAC address: (read-only) The Media Access Controller (MAC) Address for the primary Wi-Fi interface on this device. The MAC address is a unique network identifier assigned when a network device is manufactured.
Turn on DHCP server: This checkbox turns the DHCP Server feature for the primary network to be on or off. This should be left checked. The DHCP server allocates an IP address to each connected device.
NOTE: If the DHCP Server is turned off, each connected device must be assigned a fixed IP address.
DHCP lease time: The number of minutes in which the devices connected to the primary network must renew the IP address assigned to them by the DHCP server. Normally, this can be left at the default value, but if you have special requirements, you can change this value.
Start DHCP address range at: The start of the IP address range used by the DHCP server of the primary network. If the IP is set on the client device, use an IP address outside of this DHCP range; if the IP address is leased from the router, it will usually be inside this range.
NOTE: Only expert users should change this setting.
End DHCP address range at: The end of the IP address range used by the DHCP server of the primary network. If the IP is set on the client device, use an IP address outside of this DHCP range; if the IP address is leased from the router, it will usually be inside this range.
NOTE: Only expert users should change this setting.
IP address: The IP address for this device, as seen from the guest local network. Normally, you can use the default value.
Note: The Guest network should be different from the Primary network. The devices connected to the guest network will have restrictions to access GUI.
Subnet mask: The subnet mask guest network setting for this device. The default value 255.255.255.0 is standard for small (class "C") networks. If you change the LAN IP Address, make sure to use the correct Subnet Mask for the IP address range of the LAN IP address.
MAC address: (read-only) The Media Access Controller (MAC) Address for the Wi-Fi interface on this device.
Turn on DHCP server: This checkbox turns the DHCP Server feature for the guest network to be on or off. The DHCP server allocates an IP address to each connected device to the guest network.
NOTE: If the DHCP Server is turned off, each connected device must be assigned a fixed IP address.
DHCP lease time: The number of minutes in which the devices connected to the guest network must renew the IP address assigned to them by the DHCP server. Normally, this can be left at the default value, but if you have special requirements, you can change this value.
Start DHCP address range at: The start of the IP address range used by the DHCP server of the guest network. If the IP is set on the client device, use an IP address outside of this DHCP range; if the IP address is leased from the router, it will usually be inside this range.
NOTE: Only expert users should change this setting.
End DHCP address range at: The end of the IP address range used by the DHCP server of the guest network. If the IP is set on the client device, use an IP address outside of this DHCP range; if the IP address is leased from the router, it will usually be inside this range.
NOTE: Only expert users should change this setting.
On enabling IPv6, we will get IPv6 Global IP to the clients connected on DHCP request. There must be an IPv6 server running in the WAN network of the router.
