DESCRIPTION

DHCP Mode

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, RFC 2131 and RFC 2132) allows
individual clients (workstations) to obtain TCP/IP configuration at startup from a
server. Unless you are instructed by your ISP, leave this field set to Server. When
configured as a server, the device provides TCP/IP configuration for the clients.
When set as a server, fill in the IP Pool Starting Address and Pool Size fields.
Select Relay to have the device forward DHCP requests to another DHCP
server. When set to Relay, fill in the DHCP Server IP field.
Select None to stop the device from acting as a DHCP server. When you select
None, you must have another DHCP server on your LAN, or else the computers
must be manually configured.

IP Pool Starting
Address

This field specifies the first of the contiguous addresses in the IP address pool.

DHCP Server IP

Type the IP address of the DHCP server to which you want the device to relay
DHCP requests. Use dotted decimal notation. Alternatively, click the right mouse
button to copy and/or paste the IP address.
