You can also specify the length of time the computers can use the configuration informa-
tion; DHCP calls this period the lease time.
Your Service Provider may, for certain services, want to provide configuration from its
DHCP servers to the computers on your LANs. In this case, the Gateway will relay the
DHCP requests from your computers to a DHCP server in the Service Provider's network.
Select Relay-agent and enter the IP address of the Service Provider's DHCP server in the
Server Address field. This address is furnished by the Service Provider.
☛ NOTE:
The relay-agent option only works when NAT is off and the Gateway is in router
mode.
