Type the IP address of the WINS (Windows Internet Naming Service) server that you want to
send to the DHCP clients. The WINS server keeps a mapping table of the computer names
on your network and the IP addresses that they are currently using.
Default Router If you set this interface to DHCP Server, you can select to use either the interface’s IP
address or another IP address as the default router. This default router will become the
DHCP clients’ default gateway.
To use another IP address as the default router, select Custom Defined and enter the IP
address.
Lease time Specify how long each computer can use the information (especially the IP address)
before it has to request the information again. Choices are:
