Automatic IP address assignment (DHCP)

The DHCP page is used to adjust the settings used by the router’s built in DHPC Server which assigns IP addresses to locally

connected devices.

DHCP relay configuration

In advanced networks configurations where the CDMA M2M router should not be responsible for DHCP assignment, but instead

an existing DHCP server is located on the Wireless WAN connection, the clients behind the CDMA M2M router are able to

communicate with the DHCP server when DHCP relay is enabled. This enables the CDMA M2M router to accept client

broadcast messages and to forward them onto another subnet.

To configure the router to act as a DHCP relay agent click the DHCP Relay toggle key to turn it ON and enter the DHCP server

address into the DHCP Server Address field. DHCP relay is disabled by default.

server, as well as the advanced DHCP settings such as NTP, TFTP and Option 150/Option 160 (VoIP options).
