DHCP
This Chapter explains the settings on the DHCP Server screen
Overview
A DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server provides a valid IP address,
Gateway address and DNS addresses to a DHCP client (PC or device) upon request.
The Internet Router can act as a DHCP server. The default value is ON (enabled),
and use of this feature is strongly recommended. Normally, the default values
should not need to be changed.
The PCs must be configured to act a DHCP clients. See page 16 for details of this
procedure.
