Dhcp Server Settings - D-Link DIR-850L User Manual

Section 3 - Configuration
DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Control Protocol. The DIR-850L has a built-in DHCP server. The DHCP Server will automatically
assign an IP address to the computers on the LAN/private network. Be sure to set your computers to be DHCP clients by setting
their TCP/IP settings to "Obtain an IP Address Automatically. " When you turn your computers on, they will automatically load
the proper TCP/IP settings provided by the DIR-850L. The DHCP Server will automatically allocate an unused IP address from
the IP address pool to the requesting computer. You must specify the starting and ending address of the IP address pool.
