N300 Wireless Router WNR2000v4
its routing table periodically. With the Both or In Only setting, the router incorporates the RIP
information that it receives.
RIP Version. This controls the format and the broadcasting method of the RIP packets that
the router sends. It recognizes both formats when receiving. By default, the RIP function is
disabled. There are three RIP versions:
• RIP-1 is universally supported. It is adequate for most networks, unless you have an
unusual network setup.
• RIP-2 carries more information. Both RIP-2B and RIP-2M send the routing data in RIP-2
format:
• RIP-2B uses subnet broadcasting.
• RIP-2M uses multicasting.
Use Router as a DHCP Server
By default, this check box is selected so that the router functions as a Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server.
Starting IP Address. Specify the start of the range for the pool of IP addresses in the same
subnet as the router. The default starting IP address is 192.168.1.2.
Ending IP Address. Specify the end of the range for the pool of IP addresses in the same
subnet as the router. The default ending IP address is 192.168.1.254.
For more information, see Manage the DHCP Server on the Router on page 48.
Address Reservation
When you specify a reserved IP address for a computer on the LAN, that computer receives
the same IP address each time it accesses the router’s DHCP server. Assign reserved IP
addresses to servers that require permanent IP settings. For more information, see
Set Up
Address Reservation on page 49.
Manage the DHCP Server on the Router
By default, the router functions as a DHCP server, enabling it to assign IP, DNS server, and
default gateway addresses to all computers and devices that are connected to the router’s
LAN. The assigned default gateway address is the LAN address of the router. The router
assigns IP addresses to the attached computers and devices from a pool of addresses
specified on the LAN Setup screen. Each pool address is tested before it is assigned to avoid
duplicate addresses on the LAN. For most applications, the default DHCP and TCP/IP
settings of the router function well.
You can specify the pool of IP addresses to be assigned by setting the starting IP address
and ending IP address. These addresses should be part of the same IP address subnet as
the router’s LAN IP address. Using the default addressing scheme, the default range is
192.168.1.2–192.168.1.254, although you might want to save part of this range for devices
with fixed addresses.
