DHCP SERVER SETTINGS
Disabled by default, Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) assigns
reusable IP addresses to DHCP client devices connected to the LAN. Enable or
Disable DHCP by selecting the appropriate button.
To configure DHCP, enter the following information:
1. Starting IP Address—enter the starting range of IP addresses available for
distribution. The default value is 192.168.0.100.
2. Number of DHCP Users—enter the maximum number of available IP
addresses for distribution. The default value is 100.
3. Client Lease Period—enter the length of time (minutes) that the DHCP
server reserves IP addresses before recycling them. The default period is
one day, represented by 0.
4. DNS 1 to 3—enter Domain Name System (DNS) information in the sup-
plied fields. The ISP may supply this information.
5. WINs—enter Windows Internet Name Service (WINs) information in the
supplied field. The ISP may supply this information.
6. Click Save Settings.
NOTE: If the CPE DHCP function is enabled and a DHCP server is
already present on the LAN, either disable the DHCP function on the
CPE or DHCP server, or ensure that the available IP Pools do not over-
lap. If both the CPE and the existing DHCP server are active, both
devices may fail to provide services to the network.
NOTE: The full range displays to the right of the field,
192.168.0.100 - 192.168.0.199 in the example.
