Explanation
Choose This AP is a DHCP Server. The access point must
have a valid IP address and subnet mask.
Enter the name for this access point as a DHCP server.
Leave the field blank if you want this access point to
respond to requests from any client.
Or enter the DHCP user class identifier as defined in RFC
3004. When this access point acts as a DHCP server, the
access point offers addresses to client requests only when the
client requests contain a matching user class identifier.
Leave the field blank if you want this access point to
respond to requests from any client.
Or enter the DHCP vendor class identifier as defined in
RFC 2132. When this access point acts as a DHCP server,
the access point offers addresses to client requests only when
the client requests contains a matching vendor class

Determines which DHCP servers may be used by access
points and wireless devices:
Use Any Available DHCP Server: Access points and
wireless devices may receive DHCP responses and addresses
from any available DHCP server.
Only Use Access Point DHCP Server: Access points and
any associated wireless devices may receive DHCP responses
and addresses only from an access point DHCP server.
Currently, the DHCP server must be located in the root
access point. If this option is selected and the root access
point does not have a DHCP server enabled, access points
and wireless devices will not be able to receive a DHCP
address. You can use this option, in combination with a
DHCP user class, to segment a network that has an existing
DHCP server and an access point DHCP server.
