8.3 The Static DHCP Screen

This table allows you to assign IP addresses on the LAN to specific individual computers based on
their MAC Addresses.
Every Ethernet device has a unique MAC (Media Access Control) address. The MAC address is
assigned at the factory and consists of six pairs of hexadecimal characters, for example,
00:A0:C5:00:00:02.
Use this screen to change your AMG1312-T Series's static DHCP settings. Click Network Setting >

DESCRIPTION
If set to Enable, your AMG1312-T Series can assign IP addresses, an IP default
gateway and DNS servers to Windows 95, Windows NT and other systems that
support the DHCP client.
If set to Disable, the DHCP server will be disabled.
If set to DHCP Relay, the AMG1312-T Series acts as a surrogate DHCP server and
relays DHCP requests and responses between the remote server and the clients. Enter
the IP address of the actual, remote DHCP server in the Remote DHCP Server field
in this case.
When DHCP is used, the following items need to be set:
This field specifies the first of the contiguous addresses in the IP address pool.
This field specifies the size, or count of the IP address pool.
This field specifies the lease time in seconds of an IP address assigned by the DHCP
server.
Select Dynamic to have the AMG1312-T Series pass a DNS (Domain Name System)
server IP address to the DHCP clients.
Select Static and enter the DNS server IP address(es) in the fields below, if you know
the IP address.
Enter the IP address of your primary/secondary DNS server.
