4.3 DHCP (DHCP Settings)

DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. The DHCP
section is where you configure the built-in DHCP Server to assign IP
addresses to the computers and other devices on your local area network
(LAN).
Use the DHCP section to configure the built-in DHCP Server to assign IP
addresses to the computers and other devices on the local area network.
DHCP Server Settings
4.3.1
Enable DHCP Server. (Default: Enabled). Once your CBA750 router is
properly configured and this option is enabled, the DHCP Server will
manage the IP addresses and other network configuration information for
computers and other devices connected to your Local Area Network.
There is no need for you to do this yourself.
The computers (and other devices) connected to your LAN also need to
have their TCP/IP configuration set to "DHCP" or "Obtain an IP address
automatically".
When you set Enable DHCP Server, the following options are displayed.
DHCP IP Address Range. (Default: 192.168.0.100-192.168.0.199). This
option defines the range of addresses available for the CBA750 to assign
to an internal network. If there are any devices using static IP addresses,
you must be sure the addresses do not fall within the range defined here.
A Static IP address is one that is entered in manually on the device.
Example: The CBA750 uses an IP address of 192.168.0.1. A computer
designated as a Web server has a static IP address of 192.168.0.3.
Another computer is designated as an FTP server with a static IP address
