Mode
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) - A TCP/IP service
protocol that offers dynamic leased configuration of host IP addresses
and distributes other configuration parameters to eligible network
clients. DHCP provides safe, reliable, and simple TCP/IP network
configuration, prevents address conflicts, and helps conserve the use of
client IP addresses on the network. DHCP uses a client/server model
where the DHCP server maintains centralized management of IP
addresses that are used on the network. DHCP-supporting clients can
then request and obtain use of an IP address from a DHCP server as part
of their network start up process. See your Network Administrator for
further information.
STATIC - A fixed IP address, typically used in a local area network
(LAN). Requires fixed IP, subnet mask, and default gateway addresses.
For all other connections, type the IP address. See your Network
Administrator for further information.
