R6230 Wireless Repeater Function: IP address option

I'm trying to set up my Netgear router as a wireless repeater, but the "Wireless Repeater IP Address" field confuses me. What should I fill into it? Isn't that just the router's IP address, which is set dynamically?

The video showed entering the address 192.168.1.1 and I couldn't find the sticker indicated by the print tutorial. 😞
