7.4 The Client List Screen

This table allows you to assign IP addresses on the LAN to specific individual computers based on
their MAC Addresses.
Every Ethernet device has a unique MAC (Media Access Control) address. The MAC address is
assigned at the factory and consists of six pairs of hexadecimal characters, for example,
00:A0:C5:00:00:02.

DESCRIPTION
If set to Server, your Device can assign IP addresses, an IP default gateway and DNS
servers to Windows 95, Windows NT and other systems that support the DHCP client.
If set to None, the DHCP server will be disabled.
If set to Relay, the Device acts as a surrogate DHCP server and relays DHCP
requests and responses between the remote server and the clients. Enter the IP
address of the actual, remote DHCP server in the Remote DHCP Server field in this
case.
When DHCP is used, the following items need to be set:
This field specifies the first of the contiguous addresses in the IP address pool.
This field specifies the size, or count of the IP address pool.
If Relay is selected in the DHCP field above then enter the IP address of the actual
remote DHCP server here.
The Device passes a DNS (Domain Name System) server IP address to the DHCP
clients.
Select Automatically to have the Device act as a DNS proxy if your ISP uses IPCP
DNS server extensions. The Device tells the DHCP clients on the LAN that the Device
itself is the DNS server. When a computer on the LAN sends a DNS query to the
Device, the Device forwards the query to the real DNS server learned through IPCP
and relays the response back to the computer. Select Manually to specify the DNS
server IP address manually.
Enter the IP address of your primary/secondary DNS server.
