tings" on the page "IP addresses", using the radio buttons (Figure 8, page 31
above, position 1).

In the entry field "IP address" (Figure 8, page 31 above, position 2) enter the IP
address of the MoRoS GPRS 1.3 in the LAN and the network mask .

To retrieve a dynamic IP address from another DHCP server in the LAN, select

12.1.3

Setting up the DHCP Server

On request, the DHCP server of the MoRoS GPRS 1.3 can automatically allocate other de-
vices in the LAN an address. This automatically allocated, dynamic IP addresses are only
valid for a certain time. The validity of the IP addresses allocated by the DHCP server are
controlled via the "Lease time". If there is already a DHCP server in the network, in which
the MoRoS GPRS 1.3 is used, this function must absolutely be disabled in the MoRoS
GPRS 1.3.

Configuration with the web interface

To set up the DHCP server, activate the checkbox "Activate DHCP server" in the
menu "Basic settings" on the page "IP addresses" (Figure 8, page 31 above, po-
sition 8).

In the entry field "First IP address" (Figure 8, page 31 above, position 4), enter
the first IP address of the address range, from which the DHCP server of the
MoRoS GPRS 1.3 allocates addresses in the LAN. In the entry field "Last IP ad-
dress" (Figure 8, page 31 above, position 5), enter the last IP address of the ad-
dress range. The IP address range of the DHCP server must be located in the
same network as the IP address of the MoRoS GPRS 1.3.

In the entry field "Lease time" (Figure 8, page 31 above, position 4), enter a Va-
lidity period in seconds for the IP addresses to be allocated from the DHCP
server. The default value is 3.600 seconds.

Save the settings by clicking "OK" (Figure 8, page 31 above, position 7).

Further down on the page, you can view the IP addresses allocated by the
DHCP server, and their "Lease time" (validity period) (Figure 8, page 31 above,
position 6).
