Obtain an IP address automatically: Select this option, the modem router will be able to
obtain IP network information dynamically from a DHCP server provided by your ISP.
Note:
)
1) The response message from a DHCP server typically contains a number of configuration
parameters (DHCP options) for the modem router. The DHCP options include IP network
information, and also the vendor-specific options. In some cases, the modem router is
implemented to perform user-defined operations (as shown below). You can implement your
own treatment of all such options.
2) If the modem router is functioning as a DHCP client, it must identify itself in option 61
(client-identifier) in every DHCP message. DUID/IAID is portion of option 61.
•
•
Option 60 Vendor ID: The option code 60 used to identify Vendor class.
Option 61 IAID: IAID (Identity Association ID) assigns an Identity Association ID to
individual interfaces. In cases where the device is functioning with a single DHCP client
identity, it must use value 1 for IAID for all DHCP interactions. In cases where the device
is functioning with multiple DHCP client identities, the values of IAID have to start at 1 for
the first identity and be incremented for each subsequent identity. For example, the
device may use IAID value 1 for the first physical interface and value 2 for the second.
Alternatively, the device may use IAID value 1 for the virtual circuit corresponding to the
first connection object in the data model and value 2 for the second connection object in
the data model.
•
•
Option 61 DUID: Specifies the name of the interface whose link-layer address the server
is to use as its DUID (DHCP Unique Identifier). You must enter a value for this parameter
or the server will not start. When the server starts, the DUID is written to the system log.
Option 125: The option 125 allows DHCP server to be pre-configured with policy for
handling classes of devices in a certain way without requiring DHCP server to be able to
parse the unique format used in client-identifier option.

identities of the security firewall in the clear. When using aggressive mode, some configuration
parameters such as Diffie-Hellman groups, and PFS can not be negotiated, resulting in a greater
importance of having "compatible" configuration on both ends.

Bandwidth: Select the Bandwidth you want to use from the drop-down List. If bigger
bandwidth is selected, device could transmit and receive data with higher speed.
Control Sideband: If bigger bandwidth is selected, this option will allow you select the
Control Sideband you want.
Fragmentation Threshold: This value specifies the maximum size for a packet before data
is fragmented into multiple packets. If you experience a high packet error rate, you may
slightly increase the Fragmentation Threshold. Setting the Fragmentation Threshold too low
may result in poor network performance. Only minor reduction of the default value is
recommended. In most cases, it should remain at its default value of 2346.
¾
RTS Threshold: Should you encounter inconsistent data flow, only minor reduction of the
default value 2347 is recommended. If a network packet is smaller than the preset RTS
threshold size, the RTS/CTS mechanism will not be enabled. The modem router sends
Request to Send (RTS) frames to a particular receiving station and negotiates the sending of
a data frame. After receiving an RTS, the wireless station responds with a Clear to Send (CTS)
frame to acknowledge the right to begin transmission. This mechanism can provide you a
quiet communication channel by notifying other stations not to send packet for a period of
time. In most cases, keep its default value of 2347.
¾
DTIM Interval: This value, between 1 and 255, indicates the interval of the Delivery Traffic
Indication Message (DTIM). A DTIM field is a countdown field informing clients of the next
window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages. The countdown unit is measured
by the amounts of beacon frames received. When the modem router has buffered broadcast
or multicast messages for associated clients, it sends the next DTIM with a DTIM Interval
value. Its clients hear the beacons and awaken to receive the broadcast and multicast
messages. The default value is 1.

transmit power will extend the wireless signal range of the device and make the signal
transmit more legible. Low transmit power with the smaller wireless signal range that will
