27. Configuring The DHCP server
Revision 1.14.3 249 RX1000/RX1100™
27.2. DHCP Configuration
27.2.1. DHCP Server Main Menu
Figure 27.1. DHCP Server Menu
The DHCP Server main menu shows the subnets configured for DHCP, as well as any groups and
hosts. New subnets, groups and hosts can be added, and existing entries can be edited or deleted.
The Edit Client Options button allows you to set global client settings for the DHCP server. Settings
made here apply to all clients unless overridden at a lower level in the configuration.
The Edit Network Interface button allows you to select which interfaces DHCP should listen for
DHCP requests on. Note that you must also have a subnet matching the IP address of the selected
interface configured in DHCP in order to actually have DHCP listen for requests on a port.
The List Active Leases button displays IP leases that are currently assigned to clients from the
dynamic IP address pool. Note that static MAC address to IP address assignments handled by DHCP
are not displayed in this list. From this list, there is a button labelled List all active and expired
leases, which will additionally display leases that have been granted that are no longer active.
The Start Server button starts the server to check the configuration. To permanently enable DHCP
you should enable it in the bootup and shutdown menu.
The Apply Changes button applys new settings to the running DHCP server. Use this after making
any changes to the configuration.
27.2.2. DHCP Shared Network Configuration
Note that the menu interfaces for creating a DHCP Shared Network Configuration and for editing an
existing one are the same - only the title differs (Create versus Edit).
