LAN Wizard: Enable DHCP Server
This screen lets you enable a DHCP server on your router. A DHCP server
automatically assigns reusable IP addresses to the devices on the LAN. When a
device becomes active on the network, the DHCP server grants it an IP address.
When the device leaves the network, the IP address is returned to the pool for use
by another device.
To enable a DHCP server on the router:
Click Yes .
LAN Wizard: DHCP Address Pool
This screen lets you configure the DHCP IP address pool. The IP addresses that
the DHCP server assigns are drawn from a common pool that you configure by
specifying the starting IP address in the range, and the ending address in the
range.
For more information, see DHCP Address Pools.
Note If there are discontinuous address pools configured on the router, then the
Starting IP and Ending IP address fields will be read-only.
Starting IP
Enter the beginning of the range of IP addresses for the DHCP server to use in
assigning addresses to devices on the LAN. This is the lowest-numbered IP
address in the range.
Ending IP
Enter the highest-numbered IP address in the range of IP addresses.
