Static IP in LAN for a Netgear WNR1000v3 Router

I am currently building an Internal Web Server. Once done, I would need a Static IP address in the server, rather than a DHCP Reserve IP in the netgear. Is this possible with the Netgear WNR1000v3...

Yes it can be done - the exact procedure will depend on the web server OS, the router actually plays no part in the exercise, although, you do need to configure the router so that it does not attempt to lease the address you gave the server.


Virtual OS: CentOS 6.6 Web Server
Host OS: Linux Mint 17
# of Physical Interfaces: 1

I am using VMWare, Technically I have 9 Eth Ports that are bridged mode in VMWare, but the netgear sees all interfaces as the Eth1 MAC Address(Each interface has a complete different MAC)..

I know with Cisco Enterprise Routers(CLI Mode), that you have to assign a static route. Is that what I would need to do in the Netgear?
