Notes: All Save and Cancel buttons on the Network Settings screen are disabled until a field

is edited. When contents of any editable field are changed, the Save and Cancel buttons for those settings become active. Click Save to save changes, or Cancel to retain the previous settings.

Only users with Supervisor or Management profiles can edit Network Settings unless noted otherwise. Status users can only view LAN and Firewall settings. See Web UI User Profiles.

Host SettingsThe Host Settings shows the modem address and an editable Hostname field. Only users with Supervisor profile can edit the Hostname.

LAN SettingsThe LAN Settings display, shown at right, include the LAN IP Address, Network Prefix Length, a checkbox to enable/disable the DHCP Server, and, when the DHCP Server is enabled, a pair of windows to set the lower and upper limits of DHCP Range.

Important: If the LAN IP Address is changed while the user is connected via LAN (as opposed to over the modem), the connection to the GUI will be lost and you will have to navigate to the new LAN address in a web browser.

Firewall SettingsThe Firewall Settings, shown at right, include a Firewall Enabled checkbox, an icon

to reveal an explanatory tooltip, and a list of network addresses allowed by the firewall when enabled. The firewall blocks all traffic on the modem interface except for that originating from or going to the Allowed Networks in the specified ranges shown in the Firewall Settings

To disable/enable the firewall, uncheck/check the Enabled checkbox.
