Network Setup


Usually your IT Department will allocate a static IP address and subnet mask for the Gateway. Enter these using dotted decimal notation into their respective fields . If access from different subnets is required also enter the Network Gateway IP address. Users who implement MAC address access security will find the MAC address of the LAN interface displayed in this screen.
