Section  - Configuration
DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Control Protocol. The DIR-68 has a built-in DHCP server. The DHCP Server will automatically assign
an IP address to the computers on the LAN/private network. Be sure to set your computers to be DHCP clients by setting their TCP/IP
settings to "Obtain an IP Address Automatically." When you turn your computers on, they will automatically load the proper TCP/IP
settings provided by the DIR-68. The DHCP Server will automatically allocate an unused IP address from the IP address pool to the
requesting computer. You must specify the starting and ending address of the IP address pool.
