When this unit is connected using SpeedFusion
TM
, other VPN peers can share this unit's
built-in WINS server by entering this unit's LAN IP address in their DHCP WINS Servers

Extended
DHCP Option
In addition to standard DHCP options (e.g. DNS server address, gateway address, subnet
mask), you can specify the value of additional extended DHCP options, as defined in RFC
2132. With these extended options enabled, you can pass additional configuration
information to LAN hosts.
To define an extended DHCP option, click the Add button, choose the option to define, and
then enter its value. For values that are in IP address list format, you can enter one IP
address per line in the provided text area input control. Each option can be defined once
only.
DHCP
Reservation
This setting reserves the assignment of fixed IP addresses for a list of computers on the
LAN. The computers to be assigned fixed IP addresses on the LAN are identified by their
MAC addresses.
The fixed IP address assignment is displayed as a cross-reference list between the
computers’ names, MAC addresses, and fixed IP addresses.
Name (an optional field) allows you to specify a name to represent the device. MAC
addresses should be in 00:AA:BB:CC:DD:EE format. Press to create a new record.
Press to remove a record. Reserved clients information can be imported from the
Client List, located at Status>Client List. For more details, please refer to Section 27.3
