DHCP Server

DHCP allows networked devices to obtain information on the parameter of IP, Netmask,
Gateway as well as DNS through the Ethernet Address of the device.

To configure the router‟s DHCP Server, select DHCP Server from the DHCP Server Mode drop-
down menu. You can then configure parameters of the DHCP Server including the domain, IP
pool (starting IP address and ending IP address to be allocated to PCs on your network), lease
time for each assigned IP address (the period of time the IP address assigned will be valid),
DNS IP address and the gateway IP address. These details are sent to the DHCP client (i.e.
your PC) when it re

quests an IP address from the DHCP server. If you check “Use Router as a

DNS Server”, the ADSL Router will perform the domain name lookup, find the IP address from
the outside network automatically and forward it back to the requesting PC in the LAN (your
Local Area Network). Click Apply to enable this function.

Note:

Option 66: This option is used to identify a TFTP server, User must set TFTP server IP address
if enable option 66.
