Example:
Suppose you configure the DHCP Server to manage addresses From 192.168.0.100 To
192.168.0.199. This means that 192.168.0.3 to 192.168.0.99 and 192.168.0.200 to
192.168.0.254 are NOT managed by the DHCP Server. Computers or devices that use
addresses from these ranges are to be manually configured. Suppose you have a web
server computer that has a manually configured address of 192.168.0.100. Because this
falls within the "managed range" be sure to create a reservation for this address and
match it to the relevant computer (see
Static DHCP Client
below).
DHCP Lease Time
The amount of time that a computer may have an IP address before it is required to
renew the lease. The lease functions just as a lease on an apartment would. The initial
lease designates the amount of time before the lease expires. If the tenant wishes to
retain the address when the lease is expired then a new lease is established. If the lease
expires and the address is no longer needed than another tenant may use the address.
Always Broadcast
If all the computers on the LAN successfully obtain their IP addresses from the router's
DHCP server as expected, this option can remain disabled. However, if one of the
computers on the LAN fails to obtain an IP address from the router's DHCP server, it may
have an old DHCP client that incorrectly turns off the broadcast flag of DHCP packets.
Enabling this option will cause the router to always broadcast its responses to all clients,
thereby working around the problem, at the cost of increased broadcast traffic on the
LAN.
NetBIOS Advertisement
Check this box to allow the DHCP Server to offer NetBIOS configuration settings to the
LAN hosts. NetBIOS allows LAN hosts to discover all other computers within the network,
e.g. within Network Neighbourhood.
Learn NetBIOS information from WAN
If NetBIOS advertisement is swicthed on, switching this setting on causes WINS
information to be learned from the WAN side, if available. Turn this setting off to configure
manually.
Primary WINS Server IP address
Configure the IP address of the preferred WINS server. WINS Servers store information
regarding network hosts, allowing hosts to 'register' themselves as well as discover other
available hosts, e.g. for use in Network Neighbourhood. This setting has no effect if the
'Learn NetBIOS information from WAN' is activated.
Secondary WINS Server IP address
Configure the IP address of the backup WINS server, if any. This setting has no effect if
the 'Learn NetBIOS information from WAN' is activated.
