WINS server address

Specify the IP address of the WINS server.

BCM50 automatically assigns the value for this parameter. If the IP address or
subnet mask for the corresponding LAN interface changes, this value is
overwritten. Use caution when changing this value.

WINS node type

Specify a client WINS node type.

The BCM50 system automatically sets this value to H-node on all DHCP
clients. This setting configures the DHCP client PCs to use P-node name
resolution before resorting to B-node name resolution.

Note: Use caution if you change this attribute.

Default gateway

Specify the IP address of the default next-hop router.

BCM50 automatically assigns the value for this parameter. If the IP address or
subnet mask for the corresponding LAN interface changes, this value is
overwritten. Use caution when changing this value.

Lease time

Specify the time, in seconds, for an address assignment until the client lease
expires.

The default is 259 200 seconds (72 hours).
