Note: For information about how to add and edit a VLAN profile, including its DHCP

VLAN DHCP Options

For each VLAN, you must specify the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) options.
DHCP Server
The default VLAN (VLAN 1) has the DHCP Server option enabled by default, allowing the VPN
firewall to assign IP, DNS server, WINS server, and default gateway addresses to all computers
connected to the VPN firewall's LAN. The assigned default gateway address is the LAN address
of the VPN firewall. IP addresses are assigned to the attached computers from a pool of addresses
that you must specify. Each pool address is tested before it is assigned to avoid duplicate addresses
on the LAN. When you create a new VLAN, the DHCP server option is disabled by default.
For most applications, the default DHCP server and TCP/IP settings of the VPN firewall are
satisfactory. Click the link to
DHCP and information about how to assign IP addresses for your network.
