DHCP Settings
Figure 166. Network detail - DHCP Settings
If you did select for the A850 as mode "dhcp server", you have to
determine the following DHCP settings:
•
Range start and Range end - specifies the IP address range
which the DHCP server can allocate to other devices within
the LAN;
•
Minimum lease time - determines the duration for which an
allocated IP address remains valid, at least;
•
Maximum lease time - determines the duration for which an
allocated IP address remains valid, at most;
•
Default lease time - determines the duration for which an
allocated IP address usually remains valid.
Note: If the determined lease time has run out, the DHCP server
allocates anew an IP address which, though, can differ from
a former address.
Primary DNS Server
Figure 167. Network detail - Primary DNS Server
If you want to use a DNS server (DNS = Domain Name System = a
distributed data bank which administrates the namespace within
the internet and notifies you about the corresponding IP address
of a name), enter the IP address of your DNS server.
