4.8 DHCP Server
If there is no workstation or server to act as the DHCP Server and assign IP addresses to each
client automatically, AW5500C can serve as the DHCP Server to statically or dynamically
assign an IP address to any network device. To enable such functionality, check Enabled to
enable the DHCP Server in AW5500C; proceed then to fill in the IP Address Range including
the “From IP Address” and “To IP Address”, fill in the IP address’ Netmask (or Subnet
Mask). “Lease Time” is the duration in minutes that an assigned IP Address will belong to
that device; once expired, the IP address will be recycled. A maximum of 21600 minutes is set
by default.
You can also assign a static IP address to a network device, meaning that the network device
would always get the same Static IP Address from the DHCP server. To statically assign an IP
address, check on the small box in front of each line, and then fill in the Host Name and/or the
MAC Address that you want to assign a static IP Address to. When DHCP is enabled, up to
32 different static IP/MAC can be set, Figure 4.23.
