5. In the Associated Interface field, use the drop-down menu to select the VLAN
interface that you want to associate with this network pool.
This drop-down menu includes all of the Wireless Module’s configured inter-
faces (such as VLAN 1). The IP address and subnet mask assigned to the
associated interface are automatically inserted into the appropriate fields.
6. In the Lease Time section, specify the lease length for IP addresses assigned by
the DHCP server. Either select Infinite or specify a lease time (in dd:hh:mm
format).
The maximum number of days is 365, the maximum number of hours is 23, and
the maximum number of minutes is 59. Therefore, the maximum lease time is
roughly one year.
7. In the Servers section, specify the IP addresses of the servers that stations might
need to reach to function properly.
a. In the left column, select the server type.
b. Click the top of the right column and specify the IP addresses for the
corresponding server type. Use the Insert and Remove buttons as needed to
add and delete additional servers for the server type.
At a minimum, you should enter the IP address of the default router (default
gateway) for this VLAN and at least one DNS server. You can add up to eight
default routers, eight DNS servers, eight NetBIOS servers, and one BOOTP
server. (NetBIOS servers are called Windows Internet Naming Service [WINS]
servers. These WINS servers map devices’ names to their IP addresses.)
8. In the Included Ranges section, click the Insert button and specify the starting
and ending IP addresses to be included in the address pool.
The DHCP server will assign IP addresses only from this range. All of the IP
addresses in the range must be within the subnetwork of the VLAN selected as
the Associated Interface.
Use the Insert and Remove buttons as needed to add and delete additional address
ranges.
