More about Following is an explanation of IP Address, Subnet Mask,
and DHCP Server.
Note Some computers on your network may need to
be restarted if DHCP is enabled on the gateway.
The DHCP Server then assigns each computer
an IP address.
IP Address The IP address of the gateway that the computers on your local
network use to communicate with the gateway and send traffic
to an external network or to another computer on your local
network.
Subnet Mask The Subnet Mask provides additional routing information for
traffic within your local network.
DHCP Server The DHCP server assigns IP addresses to each computer on
your local network. If the DHCP Server is enabled on the
gateway, then IP addresses are assigned automatically. If the
DHCP Server is not enabled, then each IP address for each
computer on your local network is entered individually and
remains static.
