DHCP allows you to enable or disable the option to obtain the IP settings for the access point

default gateway, and Domain Name Server (DNS) address are dynamically assigned to the
access point by the network DHCP server. Default: Enable

Note: Enterasys Networks recommends that you reset the access point after changing the DHCP
client status.
IP Address is the IP address of the access point. Valid IP addresses consist of four decimal
numbers, 0 to 255, separated by periods.
Subnet Mask is the mask that identifies the host address bits used for routing to specific
subnets.
Default Gateway is the IP address of the router for the access point, which is used if the
requested destination address is not on the local subnet.
If you have management stations, DNS, RADIUS, or other network servers located on
another subnet, type the IP address of the default gateway router in the text field
provided. Otherwise, leave the address as all zeros (0.0.0.0).
Primary DNS and Secondary DNS are the IP addresses of the Domain Name Servers (DNS)
on the network. A DNS maps numerical IP addresses to domain names and can be used to
identify network hosts by familiar names instead of the IP addresses.
