Chapter 6 DHCP
6.1 DHCP Settings
The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is an automatic
configuration protocol used on IP networks. If you enable the built-in
DHCP server on the device, it will automatically configure the parameters
of TCP/IP protocol for all your LAN computers (including IP address,
subnet mask, gateway and DNS etc), eliminating the need for manual
intervention. 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 device.
DHCP Server
: Check or uncheck the box to enable or disable the
device’s
DHCP server feature.
IP pool start address
: Enter the starting IP address for the DHCP
server’s IP assignment.
IP pool end address
: Enter the ending IP address for the DHCP
server’s IP assignment.
Lease Time
: The length of time for the IP address lease. Configuring a
proper lease time improves the efficiency for the DHCP server to reclaim
disused IP addresses.

6.2 DHCP Clients & Address Reservation
This section not only displays a DHCP dynamic client list but also
includes a configurable Static DHCP assignment feature.
The DHCP client list displays IP addresses assigned by the built-in
DHCP server, MAC addresses, host names and lease time. If you would
like some devices on your network to always have fixed IP addresses, you
can manually add a static DHCP assignment entry for each such device.
You can manually add an IP address and a MAC address, and then
whenever a host with this MAC address connects to the router, it will
always get the same IP address (the one you just added). According to the
connected computer's MAC address, the router checks relevant entries in
its DHCP reservation list and decides what IP address to assign to this
host (an unused IP from DHCP IP address pool, or a reserved one): If it
fails in finding a reserved IP address for this MAC address in the list, it will
immediately assign an unused IP from its DHCP IP address pool; and if
such IP is found, it will be assigned to this host so as to ensure that host
with a static DHCP assignment always get this reserved IP address.
IP Address
: Enter the IP address for static DHCP assignment.
MAC Address
: Enter the MAC address of a computer to always receive
the same IP address (the IP you just entered above).
Host name
: Displays the name of a computer (DHCP client).
