4.5 DHCP Server
The settings of TCP/IP environment include Host IP, Subnet Mask, Gateway, and DNS
configurations. It is not a simple task to correctly configure all the computers in your LAN
environment. Fortunately, DHCP provides a rather simple approach to handle all these
settings. This product supports the function of DHCP server. If you enable this product’s
DHCP server and configure your computers as “automatic IP allocation” mode, then when
your computer is powered on, it will automatically load the proper TCP/IP settings from
this product. The settings of DHCP server include the following items:
1. DHCP Server: Choose “Disable” or “Enable.”
2. Range of IP Address Pool: Whenever there is a request, the DHCP server will
automatically allocate an unused IP address from the IP address pool to the
requesting computer. You must specify the starting and ending address of the IP
address pool.
3. Domain Name: Optional, this information will be passed to the client.
