Cisco CVR100W Wireless-N 300M Router Administration Guide
•
Manually assign an IP address to your PC. The address must be on the same
subnet as the CVR100W. For example, if you change the CVR100W's IP
address to 10.0.0. 1 , assign your PC an IP address in the range of 10.0.0.2 to
10.0.0.255.
Open a new browser window and enter the new IP address of the CVR100W to
reconnect.
Configuring DHCP
By default, the CVR100W functions as a DHCP server to the hosts on the Wireless
LAN (WLAN) or LAN network, assigns IP addresses, and provides DNS server
addresses.
With DHCP enabled, the CVR100W's IP address serves as the gateway address to
your LAN. The CVR100W assigns IP addresses to PCs on the LAN from a pool of
addresses. The CVR100W tests each address before it is assigned to avoid
duplicate addresses on the LAN.
By default the CVR100W assigns an IP address to each host on the LAN from the
default IP address pool (192. 1 68. 1 . 1 00 to 192. 1 68. 1 . 1 49). If you need to set any host
with a static IP address, use an IP address from the 192. 1 68. 1 .2 to 192. 1 68. 1 .99 IP
address pool. This prevents conflicts with the default IP address pool.
To configure DHCP settings:
Choose Networking > LAN > LAN Configuration.
(Optional) Select the VLAN that you want to edit from the drop-down menu.
In the DHCP Server field, select one of the following options:
Enable
Disable
Click this radio button to allow the CVR100W to act as
the DHCP server in the network.
Click this radio button to disable DHCP on the
CVR100W.
If you want another device on your network to be the
DHCP server, or to manually configuring the network
settings of all of your PCs, disable DHCP.
