II. Set a DHCP server

The enabled DHCP server can assign the IP addresses, according to the defined

address range on this page, to the DHCP client sending a request. It is recommended

that you select the [Use a default range] check box to assign a suitable default IP

address pool for the current subnet.

If necessary, you can also set the DHCP address range manually. In this case, do not

select the [Use a default range] check box (by removing the tick). Type in the start and

end IP addresses in the corresponding fields, and then click <OK>.

If necessary, you can type in commonly used DNS suffixes such as google.com in the

[Local domain name] text box. Thus, you can access the Google homepage by entering

http://www/ in the Web browser. Small and medium-sized enterprises can also set

their own DNS suffixes here while home users need not.

4.3.3 DHCP Relay

The DR814Q has the DHCP relay function to transmit packets between the DHCP

client and server in different network segments, thereby making the DHCP client on

multiple networks use the DHCP server across these segments.
