DHCP Server
A DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server
provides a valid IP address (and the Gateway and DNS ad-
dresses) to a DHCP client (PC or device) upon request. The
Internet Gateway can act as a DHCP server.
To use this feature:
•
The Internet Gateway must be configured with the fol-
lowing data.
•
The PCs must be configured to act as DHCP clients. This
procedure is explained in the next section.

The DNS field will display the DNS entered
in the Port Configuration screen.

If Enabled, the Internet Gateway will
function as a DHCP server. The
default value is Disabled.
The IP Start Address and IP Finish
Address fields set the values used by
the DHCP server.
This range also determines the
number of DHCP clients supported.
(Maximum number of clients is 253.)
The IP Addresses provided by your
ISP. Only 1 is essential. Multiple
entries should be entered in the order
you want them accessed. (The first
available DNS will be used.)
