Address
If you are using the RX3041H with multiple PCs on your LAN, you must connect the LAN via the Ethernet
ports on the built-in Ethernet switch. You must assign a unique IP address to each device residing on your
LAN. The LAN IP address identifies the RX3041H as a node on your network must be in the same subnet as
the PCs on your LAN. The default LAN IP for the RX3041H is 192.168.1.1.

Definition
A network node can be thought of as any interface where a
device connects to the network, such as the RX3041H’s LAN port
and the network interface cards on your PCs. See Appendix A for
an explanation of subnets.

You can change the default to reflect the true IP address that you want to use with your network.
Note
The RX3041H itself can function as a DHCP server for your LAN

The LAN IP address of the RX3041H. This IP is used by your computers to
identify the RX3041H’s LAN port. Note that the public IP address assigned to
you by your ISP is not your LAN IP address. The public IP address identifies

Subnet Mask
The LAN subnet mask identifies which parts of the LAN IP Address refer to
your network as a whole and which parts refer specifically to nodes on the
network. Your device is preconfigured with a default subnet mask of
255.255.255.0.
