DESCRIPTION
This field is only available when you select DHCP Relay in the DHCP field.
Enter the IP address of the actual remote DHCP server in this field.
This field is only available when you select Enable in the DHCP field.
This field specifies the first of the contiguous addresses in the IP address pool.
This field specifies the last of the contiguous addresses in the IP address pool.
This is the period of time DHCP-assigned addresses is used. DHCP automatically assigns IP
addresses to clients when they log in. DHCP centralizes IP address management on central
computers that run the DHCP server program. DHCP leases addresses, for a period of time,
which means that past addresses are "recycled" and made available for future reassignment
to other systems.
This field is only available when you select Enable in the DHCP field.
Enter the lease time of the DHCP server.
This field is only available when you select Enable in the DHCP field.
Select the type of service that you are registered for from your Dynamic DNS service
provider.
Select Dynamic if you have the Dynamic DNS service.
Select Static if you have the Static DNS service.
Enter the first and second DNS (Domain Name System) server IP address the Device passes
to the DHCP clients.
Select Enable to activate the IPv6 mode and configure IPv6 settings on the Device.
Select this option to automatically obtain an IPv6 network prefix from the service provider
or an uplink router.
Select this option to configure a fixed IPv6 address for the Device's LAN IPv6 address.
If you select static IPv6 address, enter the IPv6 address prefix that the Device uses for the
LAN IPv6 address.
If you select static IPv6 address, enter the IPv6 prefix length that the Device uses to
generate the LAN IPv6 address.
An IPv6 prefix length specifies how many most significant bits (starting from the left) in the
address compose the network address. This field displays the bit number of the IPv6 subnet
mask.
Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) allows an IPv6 switch or router to discover the presence
of MLD hosts who wish to receive multicast packets and the IP addresses of multicast
groups the hosts want to join on its network. Select Enable MLD Snooping to activate MLD
Snooping on the Device. This allows the Device to check MLD packets passing through it and
learn the multicast group membership. It helps reduce multicast traffic.
