LABEL DESCRIPTION
Enable DHCP Server Select the checkbox to enable DHCP for LAN.
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, RFC 2131 and RFC 2132) allows individual
clients (computers) to obtain TCP/IP configuration at startup from a server. Leave the
Enable DHCP Server check box selected unless your ISP instructs you to do
otherwise. Clear it to disable the EMG2306-R10A acting as a DHCP server. When
configured as a server, the EMG2306-R10A provides TCP/IP configuration for the
clients. If not, DHCP service is disabled and you must have another DHCP server on
your LAN, or else the computers must be manually configured. When set as a server, fill
in the following four fields.
IP Pool Starting
Address
This field specifies the first of the contiguous addresses in the IP address pool for LAN.
Pool Size This field specifies the size, or count of the IP address pool for LAN.
Apply Click Apply to save your changes back to the EMG2306-R10A.
