Description
If set to None, the DHCP server is disabled.
If set to Server, the router acts as a DHCP server.
If set to Relay, the router obtains DHCP information from a Remote
DHCP server and distributes that information to the local hosts.
This field is the beginning of the range of IP addresses to assign.
This field is the number of sequential addresses available for
assignment to attached hosts. The maximum is 32.
Enter the DNS address in this field if you want the router to assign the
Primary DNS Server address to attached hosts. If this field is 0.0.0.0, the
router assigns its own address as DNS Server, and performs DNS Proxy
if it can obtain a DNS address from the ISP.
If you want the router to assign the Secondary DNS Server address
to attached hosts, enter the address in this field.
If DHCP is set to Relay, enter the address of the Remote DHCP Server
from which your router obtains DHCP information for assignment to
devices on the local network.
Enter the IP address of the LAN interface of the router in dotted-decimal
notation (four decimal numbers, between 0 and 255, separated by
periods, for example, 192.168.135.5). Every device on the TCP/IP
network must have a unique IP address.
An IP address consists of two parts, the network ID and the host ID.
The IP Subnet Mask specifies the network ID portion of the address,
written in dotted-decimal notation. The router automatically calculates
this mask for the class of the IP address that you assign. Unless you
have a special need for subnetting, use the default subnet mask
calculated by the router. All hosts on the LAN segment should use the
same mask.
