You can configure your network and DSL device to use the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP).
This page provides DHCP instructions for implementing it on your network by selecting the role of DHCP
protocol that this device wants to play. There are two different DHCP roles that this device can act as: DHCP
Server and DHCP Relay. When acting as DHCP server, you can setup the server parameters at the DHCP
Server page; while acting as DHCP Relay, you can setup the relay at the DHCP Relay page.
DHCP Server configuration
By default, the device is configured as a DHCP server, with a predefined IP address pool of 192.168.10.64
through 192.168.10.253 (subnet mask 255.255.255.0).
Field Description

Max Lease Time The Lease Time is the amount of time that a network user is allowed to maintain a
network connection to the device using the current dynamic IP address. At the end of
the Lease Time, the lease is either renewed or a new IP is issued by the DHCP
server. The amount of time is in units of seconds. The default value is 86400
