router. The default range is 192.168.2.2 to 192.168.2.31.
To specify a different range for IP addresses, select IP address range and enter the
starting and ending IP address.
● Lease time: You can set the Lease time for the assignment of IP addresses to
network clients. This determines how long a client is allowed to use an assigned IP
address. If a client is not active for a period of time and the lease expires, the IP
address will be released and can be used for another client. The expired client will
then have to send a request for an IP address the next time it attempts to connect to
the network. You can change the length of the lease depending on how long you think
a client should have an IP address. There is no need to change this setting unless you
have a large network and you are short on available IP addresses to be assigned.
● Domain name: Specify the local network domain name which the router will use.
Each host which receives an IP from the router’s DHCP server will belong to this
domain.
802.1d
The 802.1d spanning tree protocol is a management protocol that allows bridges within a
network to communicate with each other to prevent loops within the network. This is
enabled by default.
