DHCP Server:
Changing settings for the DHCP server is optional. The default selections are almost always sufficient.
DHCP Server: (Default: Enabled) When the DHCP server
is enabled, users of your network will be able to
automatically connect to the internet without any special
configuration. It is recommended that you leave this
enabled. Disabling the DHCP server is only
recommended if you have another DHCP server on your
network and it is configured properly.
Range Start and Range End: These designate the range
of values in the reserved pool of IP addresses for the
DHCP server. Values within this range will be given to any
DHCP enabled computers on your network. The default
values are almost always sufficient (default: 72 to 200, as
in 192.168.0.72 to 192.168.0.200).
Example: The IBR600 uses an IP address of 192.168.0.1 for its
primary network by default. 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 of 192.168.0.4. The starting IP address for the DHCP server needs to be 192.168.0.5 or
higher.
Lease Time: [Default: 720 minutes (12 hours)] The lease time specifies how long DHCP-enabled computers will wait
before requesting a new DHCP lease. Smaller values are better suited to busy environments.
