DCHP Configuration
DHCP is a TCP/IP service protocol to provide dynamic leasing of IP addresses and
other configuration information to client hosts on the network. The router can perform
as a DHCP server with central management of your IP address pool for simple and
safe TCP/IP configuration and IP address conservation. For additional information,
see “DHCP” on page 4-2.
The DHCP page allows viewing and configuration of the current DHCP settings.
These settings include:
• LAN DHCP Server Status - Indicates the router’s current DHCP Server
mode.
• IP Addresses Pool Setting - Shows the current first IP address and the last IP
address in the range of the IP address pool.
• The Current DHCP Leases List shows the network clients that are currently
leasing their IP addresses from the pool. From left to right, the following
information is presented on each row:
– Client IP: Displays the leased IP address assigned to that specific client.
– State: Indicates whether the IP address is enabled or disabled.
– Host Name: Displays the name of the host leasing that specific IP
address.
– Expires (mm/dd/yy): Displays the date when the IP address lease will
expire. At that time (if not before), the leased IP address will be freed for
re-assignment, and the network client will need to request a new IP
address from the router.
