Field Description
IP Address The IP address of your router on the local area network. Your local
area network settings are based on the address assigned here.
Subnet Mask The subnet mask of your router on the local area network.
DHCP Mode Once your router is properly configured and DHCP Server is
enabled, the DHCP Server will manage the IP addresses and other
network configuration information for computers and other devices
connected to your Local Area Network. There is no need for you to
do this yourself.
The computers (and other devices) connected to your LAN also
need to have their TCP/IP configuration set to "DHCP" or "Obtain an
IP address automatically".
IP Pool Range These two IP values (from and to) define a range of IP addresses
that the DHCP Server uses when assigning addresses to computers
and devices on your Local Area Network. Any addresses that are
outside of this range are not managed by the DHCP Server; these
could, therefore, be used for manually configured devices or
devices that cannot use DHCP to obtain network address details
automatically.
Your router, by default, has a static IP address of 192.168.0.1. This
means that addresses 192.168.0.2 to 192.168.0.254 can be made
available for allocation by the DHCP Server.
Max Lease Time The amount of time that a computer may have an IP address before
it is required to renew the lease. The lease functions just as a lease
on an apartment would. The initial lease designates the amount of
time before the lease expires. If the tenant wishes to retain the
address when the lease is expired then a new lease is established. If
the lease expires and the address is no longer needed then another
tenant may use the address.
Domain Name Domain name for the dhcp server scope.
DNS Servers DNS Server address for the dhcp server scope.
IP Address The IP address to be configured for your computer or device on the
local area network.For example, 192.168.0.2.
Mac Address The mac address of your computer or device on the local area
network.
