Group Number Select

GROUP number is related to VLAN Group settings.The default setting is 4 lan ports in GROUP1


LAN TCP/IP Setup

These are advanced settings that you may configure if you are a network administrator and your network contains multiple Routers. If you make any changes to these settings you will need to restart your computer(s) for the settings to take effect.

Note: Multicasting can reduce the load on non-Router machines because they do not listen to the RIP multicast address and will not receive the RIP packets. However, if one Router uses multicasting, then all Routers on your network must use multicasting.


Default DMZ Server

Specifying a Default DMZ Server allows you to set up a computer or server that is available to anyone on the Internet for services that you haven't defined. There are security issues with doing this, so only do this if you're willing to risk open access. If you do not assign a Default DMZ Server, the Router discards any incoming service requests which are undefined. This can be a security problem. You shouldn't check this box unless you have a specific reason to do so.

To assign a computer or server to be a DMZ server:

  1. Click the Default DMZ Server checkbox
  2. Type the IP address for that server.
  3. Click Apply.

Use Router As DHCP Server

The EVG2000 Router is set up by default as a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) Server, which provides the TCP/IP configuration for the all the computers that are connected to the Router.

Unless told to change these settings by your ISP, leave the Use Router As DHCP Server check box checked.

If your ISP has you clear this check box, you must have another DHCP server within your network or else you must manually configure the computer.
