Assigning Ip Addresses Automatically; Windows Xp - Siemens Gigaset WLAN Operating Instructions Manual

Integration in the network

Assigning IP addresses automatically

Your Gigaset WLAN Repeater has a DHCP server that automatically assigns addresses in
the network. As a rule, you do not have to do anything, as the Obtain IP address auto-
matically function box is set during the installation of TCP/IP. If however you integrate
your Gigaset WLAN Repeater in an existing network with static address blocks, domain
names or subnets or if you cannot launch the configuration program straight away, you
should check the TCP/IP properties and make any necessary changes. This is described
below.
