Configuring DHCP Server Operation on the AP/Bridge
Dynamic Assignment of Client IP Addresses
Configuring DHCP Server Operation on the AP/Bridge
The following steps are used to configure DHCP server operation to provide client IP addresses. Entries
marked optional indicate setting that are not absolutely necessary to have DHCP server operation
working, but may be needed to access some wired network features.
These steps assume that the AP/Bridge was initially configured using the Quick Setup pages, and
therefore the default bridge configuration exists:
Remove eth0 from the default bridge (br0).
Assign an IP address to br0 that is within the same subnet as the addresses to be assigned to
wireless clients.
Assign an IP address to the Ethernet interface (eth0) that is within the range of addresses used
by your wired network.
Set the DHCP broadcast address. This is the address used to send broadcast messages to all
wireless clients.
Set the DHCP domain name (optional). This is the name that refers to the bridge and the
wireless clients associating with the AP/Bridge.
Set the DHCP gateway IP address. This is the path (gateway) that the DHCP server uses to
access the router function of the AP/Bridge. This is normally the IP address of the bridge.
Enter the starting and ending IP addresses and net mask that define the pool of IP addresses
that are served to wireless clients. Make sure that the IP address of the bridge is NOT inside
this pool of addresses.
Enter the DHCP lease time (optional). This value determines how long a client can
continuously use an assigned IP address before it must ask to either renew this address or lose
the IP connection.
Enter the name server IP address. This is the name server on your wired network used to
translate host names into IP addresses.
Enter the network time protocol (ntp) server IP address (optional). This is used to sync the
clock settings of your wireless client to your wired network.
Enter the Windows internet naming service (WINS) server IP address (if used).
Enable NAT for the bridge, specifying the Ethernet interface (eth0) as the source. This tells the
DHCP server to use eth0’s IP address as the source address for packets through the bridge.
Enable the DHCP server for the bridge. The DHCP server is off by default, and must be
enabled after it is configured.
Enter a default route to your wired network’s gateway. This tells the AP/Bridge where to send
packets destined for an address outside of the local network.
Enable global IP routing. This allows packets to be routed between the ethernet and bridge
interfaces. Since the bridge no longer contains eth0, IP routing must be used to move packets
between the Ethernet and wireless interfaces.
