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 router 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.
