Hi Amuza!
That looks like the WAN port of a router connected to a non-LibreMesh router for getting internet access. If this is correct then that address is for reaching the ISP gateway (your modem) and reaching the internet. And your LibreMesh node received that IP from the DHCP server on the ISP modem/router.
Ciao!
