Configuration
DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. The
router by factory default acts a DHCP server for your network so
it automatically dispatch related IP settings to any local user
configured as a DHCP client. It is highly recommended that you
leave the router enabled as a DHCP server if you do not have a
DHCP server for your network.
If you want to use another DHCP server in the network other than
the Vigor Router’s, you can let Relay Agent help you to redirect
the DHCP request to the specified location.
Enable Server -
Let the router assign IP address to every host in
the LAN.
Disable Server –
Let you manually assign IP address to every
host in the LAN.
Relay Agent –
Specify which subnet that DHCP server is located
the relay agent should redirect the DHCP request to.
Start IP Address -

DHCP server to start with when issuing IP addresses. If the 1st IP
address of your router is 192.168.1.1, the starting IP address must
be 192.168.1.2 or greater, but smaller than 192.168.1.254.
