Dhcp Server Settings - D-Link DGL-5500 User Manual

Section 3 - Configuration
DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Control Protocol. The DGL-5500 has a built-in DHCP server which will automatically assign an
IP address to computers/devices on your 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 DGL-5500. 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.
