functionality on the LAN, allowing the router to dynamically assign lease IP addresses
to clients that connect to it from the local network.

gateway assigns IP addresses to the
computers and other hosts on your
network if they have DHCP enabled. By
default, the gateway server is enabled. If
there is another DHCP server running on
your network (on another router), you
must disable one of the DHCP servers.
If not selected, you must carefully
configure the IP address, Subnet Mask,
and DNS settings of every host on your
network. Do not assign the same IP
address to more than one host. Your
gateway must be on the same subnet as
the other hosts.
DHCP Server IP Address
Enter the default port forwarding LAN
Client IP Address.

Lease Status Tab
The Lease Status tab in the Local Address menu displays the active DHCP leases since
the last reboot.
Be sure to click the
Apply
button once you have made changes.
Lease Reservation Tab
This tab allows you to manage the lease reservation so that the same client receives
the same IP address each time.
DHCP Starting IP Address
Sets the first IP address assigned by the
DHCP server, in dotted-decimal format. It
must be greater than the IP address value
of the gateway. For example, if the IP
address of the gateway is 192.168.15.1
(default), the starting IP address must be
192.168.15.2 (or higher).
DHCP Ending IP Address
Sets the final IP address assigned by the
DHCP server. If the DHCP server runs out
of DHCP addresses, users cannot access
network resources. If this happens,
increase the Ending IP (to the limit of 254)
or reduce the Lease Time.
