Description
Check or uncheck this box to enable or disable the DHCP
server service for your LAN.
Specify the lowest and highest addresses in the DHCP
address pool.
The amount of time in seconds the assigned address will
be used by a device connected on the LAN.
The address of the default gateway for computers that
receive IP addresses from this pool. The default gateway
is the device that the DHCP client computers first
contacted to communicate with the Internet. Typically, it is
the iPBX30's LAN port IP address.
The IP address of the Domain Name System server to be
used by computers that receive IP addresses from this
pool. The DNS server translates common Internet names
that you type into your web browser into their equivalent
numeric IP addresses. Typically, the server(s) are located
with your ISP. However, you may enter LAN IP address
of the iPBX30 as it will serve as DNS proxy for the LAN
computers and forward the DNS request from the LAN
to DNS servers and relay the results back to the LAN
computers. Note that both the primary and secondary
DNS servers are optional.
The IP address of the WINS servers to be used by
computers that receive IP addresses from the DHCP IP
address pool. You don't need to enter this information
unless your network has WINS servers.
