Using the Configuration Menu
DHCP stands for Dynamic Host
Control Protocol. The DI-614+
has a built-in DHCP server. The
DHCP Server will automatically
assign an IP address to the
computers on the LAN/private
network. Be sure to set your
computers to be DHCP clients
by setting their TCP/IP settings
to “Obtain an IP Address
Automatically.” When you turn
your computers on, they will
automatically load the proper
TCP/IP settings provided by
the DI-614+. The DHCP Server
will automatically allocate an
unused IP address from the IP
address pool to the requesting
computer. You must specify the
starting and ending address of
the IP address pool.
