DNS servers
Use the LAN IP screen to configure the DNS server information that the Business
Secure Router sends to the DHCP client devices on the LAN.
LAN TCP/IP
The Business Secure Router has built in DHCP server capability that assigns IP
addresses and DNS servers to systems that support DHCP client capability.
Factory LAN defaults
The LAN parameters of the Business Secure Router are preset in the factory with
the following values:
• IP address of 192.168.1.1 with subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 (24 bits)
• DHCP server enabled with 126 client IP addresses starting from 192.168.1.2.
These parameters work for the majority of installations. If your ISP gives you
explicit DNS server addresses, read the embedded WebGUI help regarding which
fields need to be configured.
RIP setup
RIP (Routing Information Protocol, RFC 1058 and RFC 1389) allows a router to
exchange routing information with other routers. RIP Direction controls the
sending and receiving of RIP packets. When set to Both or Out Only, the
Business Secure Router broadcasts its routing table periodically. When set to Both
or In Only, it incorporates the RIP information that it receives; when set to None,
it does not send any RIP packets and ignores any RIP packets received.
RIP Version controls the format and the broadcasting method of the RIP packets
that the Business Secure Router sends (it recognizes both formats when
receiving). RIP-1 is universally supported; but RIP-2 carries more information.
RIP-1 is probably adequate for most networks, unless you have an unusual
network topology.
