DHCP Server Settings
DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Control Protocol. The
DIR-400 has a built-in DHCP server. The DHCP Server
will automatically assign an IP address to the computers
on the LAN/private network. Be sure to set your computers
to be DHCP clients by setting their TCP/IP settings to
“Obtain an IP Address Automatically.” When you turn your
computers on, they will automatically load the proper TCP/
IP settings provided by the DIR-400. The DHCP Server will
automatically allocate an unused IP address from the IP
address pool to the requesting computer. You must specify
the starting and ending address of the IP address pool.
