Description
DHCP Server
Enables (Yes) or disables (No) DHCP on the device. If No is
selected, all the static DHCP rules in this screen are ignored.
Starting Local Address
Defines the starting private IP address for the pool of IP
addresses that can be used by connecting clients. Private
addresses are translated to public IPs to be used on the
network.
Number of CPEs
Defines the maximum number of customer premises
equipment devices (CPE) that can connect to the network
through the DDW365.
Lease Time
Defines the DHCP lease time duration in minutes between 1
and 71582788. A DHCP user's PC gets an IP address with a
lease time. When the lease time expires, the PC must connect
to the DHCP server and be issued a new unused IP address.
Note:
The default DHCP lease time is 3600 seconds and
should be changed to
86400
seconds (24 hours). This helps
resolve connectivity issues with some iMAC and Windows 7
devices that turn off the network interface when they go into
standby mode. This results in slow Web browsing until the
device gets a new IP address via DHCP.
