DHCP Config

The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) provides configuration Parameters

to Internet hosts. DHCP consists of two components: a protocol for delivering host-

specific configuration parameters from a DHCP server to a host and a mechanism for

allocation of network addresses to hosts. DHCP is built on a client-server model, where

designated DHCP server hosts allocate network addresses and deliver configuration

parameters to dynamically configured hosts.

If you have set the TCP/IP protocol of your PC to dynamic IP address, the built-in

DHCP server will assign the DHCP Start IP Address and DHCP End IP Address

automatically to the PCs connected in the same network. For dynamic WAN IP, the

DNS IP address is obtained automatically from the ISP.

NOTE

If you are running different DHCP servers on your network, you will have to

enable only one DHCP server to prevent any conflict in the network

addressing.
