DHCP Server Lease Time
This is the period of time DHCP-assigned addresses is used. DHCP automatically assigns IP addresses to clients when
they log in. DHCP centralizes IP address management on central computers that run the DHCP server program.
DHCP leases addresses, for a period of time, which means that past addresses are “recycled” and made available
for future reassignment to other systems.
This field is only available when you select Enable in the DHCP field.
Days/Hours/Minutes DHCP server leases an address to a new client device for a period of time, called the DHCP
lease time. When the lease expires, the DHCP server might assign the IP address to a
different client device.
DNS Values
This field appears only when you select Enable in the DHCP field.
DNS The Zyxel Device supports DNS proxy by default. The Zyxel Device sends out its own LAN IP
address to the DHCP clients as the first DNS server address. DHCP clients use this first DNS
server to send domain-name queries to the Zyxel Device. The Zyxel Device sends a response
directly if it has a record of the domain-name to IP address mapping. If it does not, the Zyxel
Device queries an outside DNS server and relays the response to the DHCP client.
Select DNS Proxy to have the DHCP clients use the Zyxel Device’s own LAN IP address. The
Zyxel Device works as a DNS relay.
Select Static if you have the IP address of a DNS server. Enter the DNS server's IP address in
the field to the right.
Select From ISP if your ISP dynamically assigns DNS server information (and the Zyxel Device's
WAN IP address).
