Table 88 Configuration items
Item Descri
IP Pool Name Enter the name of a dynamic address pool.
IP Address
Enter an IP address segment for dynamic allocation.
To avoid address conflicts, the DHCP server excludes the IP
addresses used by gateways or FTP servers from dynamic
allocation.
You can enter a mask length or a mask in dotted decimal notation.
Mask
Lease
Duration
Unlimited
Configure the address lease duration for the address pool.
Unlimited indicates the infinite duration.
days/hours/minutes
Client Domain Name
Enter the domain name suffix for the client.
With the suffix assigned, the client only needs to enter part of a
domain name, and the system adds the domain name suffix for
name resolution.
Gateway Address
Enter the gateway addresses for the client.
DHCP clients that want to access hosts outside the local subnet
request gateways to forward data. You can specify gateways in
each address pool for clients and the DHCP server assigns
gateway addresses while assigning an IP address to the client.
Up to eight gateways can be specified in a DHCP address pool,
separated by commas.
