Lease Time

The length of time the DHCP server will reserve the IP

address for each computer. Setting lease times for shorter

intervals such as one day or one hour frees IP addresses after

the specified period of time. This also means that a particular

computer’s IP address may change over time. If you have set

any advanced features such as DMZ, this is dependent on the

IP address. For this reason, you will not want the IP address

to change.

IP Address Pool

The DHCP IP Address Pool is the range of IP addresses set

aside for dynamic assignment to the computers on your

network.

Start IP

This field indicates the first of the contiguous IP addresses in

the IP address pool.

End IP

This field indicates the last of the contiguous IP addresses in

the IP address pool.

Domain Name

The domain name is the name you assign to your network.
