Figure 12 DHCP configuration

This page allows configuration and status of the optional internal DHCP server for the

LAN.

If you have your own DHCP server servicing the LAN side (or choose to “hardcode”

all of your PC‟s IP addresses), you can disable the internal DHCP server by selecting

the No radio button. If you do this, make sure the IP address assigned to the CMRG

is on the same subnet as the external DHCP server (the subnet mask is always

255.255.255.0), or you won‟t be able to access the CMRG from the LAN. The IP

address of the CMRG can be set from the Basic Setup page.

You can also set the starting IP address for IP leases available to the LAN, and

change the number of PCs supported on the LAN. In the case above, addresses

192.168.0.2 through 192.168.0.9 can be used as hard-coded IP addresses with no

fear of IP address conflict with the DHCP pool. Configured WINS server addresses

can also be passed to CPEs behind the CMRG via DHCP.
