DHCP
The wireless AP/Router includes a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
server that can assign temporary IP addresses to any attached host requesting the
service. The unit can support up to 253 local clients. Addresses are assigned to
clients from a common address pool configured on the unit. Configure an address
pool by specifying start and end IP addresses. Be sure not to include the unit's IP
address in the address pool range. Click on “Network Settings” followed by “DHCP.”
Figure 5-53. DHCP Settings (Router mode)
• DHCP Server – Enables the DHCP server. (Default: Enabled)
• Assigned DHCP IP Address – Specify the start and end IP addresses of a range
that the DHCP server can allocate to DHCP clients. Note that the address pool
range is always in the same subnet as the unit’s IP setting. The maximum clients
that the unit can support is 253.
• DHCP IP Lease Time – Select a time limit for the use of an IP address from the IP
pool. When the time limit expires, the client has to request a new IP address. The
lease time is expressed in seconds.
(Default: 86400 seconds; Range: 60~864000 seconds)
• Save – Saves the current DHCP configuration.
• Cancel – Restores the previous DHCP configuration information.
