4-3-1. DHCP Server Setting

The DVG-5121SP has a built-in DHCP (Dynamic Host Control Protocol) 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 on your computers,

they will automatically load the proper TCP/IP settings provided by the DVG-5121SP. 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.
