Network Management 
Use the Network menu to make network configuration settings as well as service 
support settings. 
WAN Configuration 
From the Network menu, choose WAN
and the WAN Configuration screen 
appears. This screen displays the network 
parameters of the WAN connection. You 
may change any of these items and press 
Apply to confirm your settings. See a 
description of each item in the following 
table: 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
WAN Configuration 
Item Description 
Host name 
Host name that identifies the N3200 on the network. 
Domain name 
Specifies the domain name of the N3200. 
MAC Address 
MAC address of the network interface. 
Jumbo Frame Support 
Enable or disable Jumbo Frame Support of the WAN interface on 
your N3200. 
WAN Port 
Enable or disable the N3200 from obtaining in IP address via 
DHCP server. If you require a static IP, disable this feature and 
input your network configuration. 
IP 
IP address of the WAN interface. 
Network mask, which is generally: 255.255.255.0 
Netmask 
Gateway 
Default Gateway IP address. 
DNS Server 
Domain Name Service (DNS) server IP address. 
IP Sharing Mode 
When enabled, PCs connected to the LAN port will be able to 
access the WAN. Default is Enabled. 
 
 
NOTE 
•  Only use Jumbo Frame settings when operating in a Gigabit environment where 
all other clients have Jumbo Frame Setting enabled. 
•  Enabling DHCP automatically turns on UPnP—see the Service Support Screen. 
•  If you are only using the WAN port, we suggest that you disable IP Sharing 
Mode. This will result in higher throughput. 
•  A correct DNS setting is vital to networks services, such as SMTP and NTP. 
•  To use the Link Aggregation feature, please make sure the networking 
equipment on the other end of Ethernet cable also supports 802.3ad protocol. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
WARNING 
Most Fast Ethernet (10/100) Switches/Routers do not support Jumbo Frame and 
you will not be able to connect to your N3200 after Jumbo Frame is turned on. If 
this happens, turn off the N3200. Then, power on the N3200 and immediately press 
and hold the Reset button on the back of the unit for 10 seconds. This will reset 
your network settings, password, and turn off Jumbo Frame Support.
