Configuring the Private Interface
The system gives you the option of configuring the DHCP server. The DHCP server for the private

interface lets IP hosts in its network automatically obtain IP addresses from a limited pool of addresses
for a fixed length of time, or lease period. Before the lease period expires, the VPN 3002 displays a

expires, and the IP address becomes available for reuse. Using DHCP simplifies configuration since you
do not need to know what IP addresses are considered valid on a particular network.
