Settings Page > Advanced Settings > LAN Figure 3-17 Settings Page - Advanced Settings - LAN (IPv4 shown) These settings apply to your local network or LAN. For this device, the LAN consists of this device and all connected devices (including the USB connected device, if it exists). 45 novatelwireless.com IPv4 IP address: The IP address for this device, as seen from the local network. Normally, you can use the default value. Subnet mask: The default value 255.255.255.0 is standard for small (class "C") networks. If you change the LAN IP Address, ensure you use the correct Subnet Mask. MAC address: The MAC address is a unique network identifier, assigned when a network device is manufactured. This read-only field displays the MAC Address for the Wi-Fi and USB interfaces on this device. Enable DHCP server: Normally, this should be left enabled. The DHCP server allocates an IP address to each connected device. If the DHCP Server was disabled, then each connected device would need to be assigned a fixed IP address. Start DHCP address range at: If you wish to change the IP address range used by the DHCP server, you can do so by changing this value. This option is for expert users only. DHCP address range: This indicates the range of IP addresses which may be allocated to connected devices. If using a fixed IP address on a connected device, you should use an IP address that is outside this range. DHCP lease time: This field determines how often connected devices must renew the IP address assigned to them by the DHCP server. Normally, this can be left at the default value, but if you have special requirements you can change this value. IPv6 If your device and your service provider support IPv6, this section will be visible. Enable IPv6: If some of your connected devices support IPv6, this setting should be enabled. IPv6-enabled connected devices will then be able to make IPv6 connections to the Internet. Link-Local address: This is the IPv6 address of this device. The Link-Local address is used for IPv6 communication between devices on the same network. 46 novatelwireless.com Settings Page > Advanced Settings > Port Filtering Figure 3-18 Settings Page - Advanced Settings - Port Filtering Use the Port Filtering feature as needed to block outgoing Internet traffic. If this setting is enabled, only traffic from the selected applications can access the Internet. Traffic is identified by port numbers. Some applications are pre-defined.
