The use , of these IP addresses is limited to the local network. Private IP addresses You are free to choose any IP address as long as it is compatible with your local network and is unique in that same network. As the STHome has a preconfigured Net10" address (10. 0. 0. 138), you should configure IP addresses like 10. 0. 0. 1, 10. 0. 0. 2, . . . on your PCs. Note: IP addresses can be configured automatically via STHome's DHCP server. See section 6. 3 for more information. Public IP addresses A second set of (Public) IP addresses having end to end scope will automatically be negotiated via the PPP protocol inside your PC(s). Simultaneous use of public & private IP Both Public and Private IP addresses are active simultaneously because of tunneling. In fact two nested" IP layers exist: the Public IP layer which is carried within the Private IP layer on the local LAN. PPP IP address negotiation By default the PPTP tunnel application automatically negotiates the Public IP address. In case your SP instructs you to use a static IP address for Relayed PPPoA, most dial in applications allow a static IP address to be supplied. 58 / 104 3EC 17058 AAAA TCZZA Ed. 04 6 Networking Services - IP DHCP and DNS , 6. 2 Speed Touch Addresses Introduction Like any other member of a LAN, the STHome must be locally identified by an IP address to be able to communicate with other local LAN devices. This section deals with the IP address configuration of the STHome for local communication only. Assigning IP addresses to the STHome IP addresses can be assigned to the STHome in several ways. Summarized, following IP address types exist: " " " " The default IP address: 10. 0. 0. 138 IP addresses assigned via the 'Initial Setup' page IP addresses assigned via a 'Ping of LifeTM IP addresses assigned to the STHome via DHCP .
