3. IP Easy Setup

The IP Easy Setup screen is where you enter information about your Netopia Router’s:
Ethernet IP address
Ethernet Subnet mask
Domain Name
Domain Name Server IP address
Default gateway IP address
Consult with your network administrator to obtain the information you will need. For more information about setting up IP, see the Firmware User’s Guide chapter on “IP Setup”.
IP Easy Setup
Ethernet IP Address: 192.168.1.1 Ethernet Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Domain Name: isp.net Primary Domain Name Server: 209.3.224.21 Secondary Domain Name Server: 209.3.224.20
Default IP Gateway: 127.0.0.2
IP Address Serving: On
Number of Client IP Addresses: 100 1st Client Address: 192.168.1.100
PREVIOUS SCREEN NEXT SCREEN
Enter an IP address in decimal and dot form (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx). Set up the basic IP & IPX attributes of your Netopia in this screen.
1. Select Ethernet IP Address and enter the first IP address from the IP address range your ISP has given you only if you are not using Network Address Translation (NAT). This will be the Netopia Router’s IP address.
The Ethernet IP Address defaults to an address (192.168.1.1) within a range reser ved by the Internet address administration authority for use within private networks.
Easy Setup 6-7
Because this is a private network address, it should never be directly connected to the Internet. Using NAT for all your connection profiles will ensure this restriction. See the Firmware User’s Guide chapter on “Multiple Network Address Translation (MultiNAT)” for more information.
2. Select Ethernet Subnet Mask and enter the subnet mask your ISP has given you only if you are not using NAT. The Ethernet Subnet Mask defaults to a standard class mask derived from the class of the Ethernet IP address you entered in the previous step.
3. Press the Down arrow key until the editable field labeled Domain Name is highlighted.
4. If you have a static IP Address, type the Domain Name your ISP gave you. Press Return. The next field Primary Domain Name Server will be highlighted. If you are using DHCP or PPPoE, leave this field blank and skip Step 5.
5. Type the Primary Domain Name Server address your ISP gave you. Press Return. A new field Secondary Domain Name Server will appear. If your ISP gave you a secondary domain name server address, enter it here. Press Return until the next field Default IP Gateway is highlighted.
6. If you do not enter a Default IP Gateway value, the router defaults to the remote IP address you entered in the Easy Setup connection profile. If the Netopia Router does not recognize the destination of any IP traffic, it forwards that traffic to this gateway.
Do not confuse the remote IP address and the Default IP Gateway’s address with the block of local IP addresses you may receive from your ISP. You use the local IP addresses for the Netopia 3346-ENT’s Ethernet port and for IP clients on your local network. The remote IP address and the default gateway’s IP address should point to your ISP’s router.
7. Toggle IP Address Serving to On or Of f, depending on whether you want the device’s IP address ser ver to supply dynamic IP addresses to your client workstations. Normally, you would accept the default On so that workstations on your LAN can have IP addresses assigned dynamically from the router.
8. The IP address server will provide 100 IP addresses automatically to workstations on your LAN. You only need to change the Number of Client IP Addresses if you have some other IP addressing scheme.
9. By default, the 1st Client Address is 192.168.1.100, based on the device’s default IP address of
192.168.1.1. You only need to change this if you have some other IP addressing scheme.
10. Press the Down arrow key until you reach NEXT SCREEN. Press Return.
