Using the Configuration Menu
Home > DHCP
DHCP
stands for
Dynamic Host Control Protocol
. The DI-764 has a built-in DHCP
server. The DHCP Server will automatically assign an IP address to the computers on
the LAN/private network. Be sure to set your computers to be DHCP clients by setting
their TCP/IP settings to ²Obtain an IP Address Automatically.³ When you turn your
computers on, they will automatically load the proper TCP/IP settings provided by the
DI-764. The DHCP Server will automatically allocate an unused IP address from the IP
address pool to the requesting computer. You must specify the starting and ending
address of the IP address pool.
DHCP Server-

Advanced > Virtual Server
Using the Configuration Menu
The DI-764 can be configured as a virtual server so that remote users accessing
Web or FTP services via the public IP address can be automatically redirected to
local servers in the LAN (Local Area Network).
The DI-764 firewall feature filters out unrecognized packets to protect your LAN
network so all computers networked with the DI-764 are invisible to the outside
world. If you wish, you can make some of the LAN computers accessible from the
Internet by enabling
Virtual Server.
Depending on the requested service, the DI-764
redirects the external service request to the appropriate server within the LAN
network.
