6.2 DHCP Server
A DHCP Server will distribute IP addresses within the network
on demand. Please define a range for the IP addresses and a
duration of validity (Lease Time).
The HorstBox is by default set up as DHCP server. This may
cause conflicts with another DCHP server already in your LAN.
Deactivate one of the servers.

An IP address issued by the DCHP server is valid for a certain
period of time, called “lease time”. After expiration a renewal or
extension is necessary.
