5.5.1 DHCP
Overview The DHCP web page offers three tabs to configure the SpeedTouch™ 's DHCP
functionality:
 DHCP Server :
To configure the general behaviour of the SpeedTouch™ 's DHCP server.
 DHCP Relay :
To configure the SpeedTouch™ DHCP relay.
 DHCP Client :
To configure the SpeedTouch™ DHCP client.
DHCP Server The DHCP server configuration is split up in three sections:
 Server Config :
To configure the SpeedTouch™ DHCP server ‘master’ settings and behaviour.
 Server Leases :
To overview current the SpeedTouch™ DHCP server's current leases, and/or
add/delete static DHCP lease entries.
 Address Pools :
To overview and add/delete DHCP address pools for the SpeedTouch™ DHCP
server.
As mentioned before, the SpeedTouch™ DHCP server - configuring local network
hosts - can be run in conjunction with one or more SpeedTouch™ DHCP clients or
SpeedTouch™ DHCP Relay agents, each created on behalf of a wide area
connection. I.e. for WAN interfaces the SpeedTouch™ offers DHCP client, or DHCP
relay support to configure MAC Encapsulated Routing (MER) or Routed IPoA
interfaces independently.
Server Config Following fields are available:

 Activate trust client:
