DHCP
10.1
DHCP
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, RFC 2131 and RFC 2132) allows individual
clients to obtain TCP/IP configuration at start-up from a server. You can configure the
NBG334W’s LAN and/or Guest WLAN as DHCP server(s) or disable them. When configured
as a server, the NBG334W provides the TCP/IP configuration for the clients. If DHCP service
is disabled, you must have another DHCP server on your LAN or Guest WLAN, or else the
computer must be manually configured.

DHCP Server Advanced Screen
This screen allows you to assign IP addresses on the LAN or Guest WLAN
(See
Chapter 9 on
page 117
)
to specific individual computers based on their MAC addresses. You can also use
this screen to configure the DNS server information that the NBG334W sends to the DHCP
clients.
Every Ethernet device has a unique MAC (Media Access Control) address. The MAC address
is assigned at the factory and consists of six pairs of hexadecimal characters, for example,
00:A0:C5:00:00:02.

LAN DHCP Setup
Enable DHCP Server
Enable or Disable DHCP for LAN or Guest WLAN (See
Chapter 9 on page

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, RFC 2131 and RFC 2132)
allows individual clients (computers) to obtain TCP/IP configuration at startup
from a server. Leave the
Enable DHCP Server
check box selected unless
your ISP instructs you to do otherwise. Clear it to disable the NBG334W
acting as a DHCP server. When configured as a server, the NBG334W
provides TCP/IP configuration for the clients. If not, DHCP service is disabled
and you must have another DHCP server on your LAN, or else the computers
must be manually configured. When set as a server, fill in the following four
fields.
IP Pool Starting
Address
This field specifies the first of the contiguous addresses in the IP address pool
for LAN or Guest WLAN.

The NBG334W passes a DNS (Domain Name System) server IP address (in the
order you specify here) to the DHCP clients. The NBG334W only passes this
information to the LAN DHCP clients when you select the
Enable DHCP Server
check box. When you clear the
Enable DHCP Server
check box, DHCP service
is disabled and you must have another DHCP sever on your LAN, or else the
computers must have their DNS server addresses manually configured.
