DHCP Server Settings
DHCP Server
When this setting is enabled, the DHCP server automatically assigns an IP address to
each computer that is connected via LAN and configured to obtain an IP address via
DHCP. The Pepwave router’s DHCP server can prevent IP address collision on the LAN.
IP Range &
Subnet Mask
Thesesettings allocate a range of IP addresses that will be assigned to LAN computers by
the Pepwave router’s DHCP server.
Lease Time
This setting specifies the length of time throughout which an IP address of a DHCP client
remains valid. Upon expiration of the lease time, the assigned IP address will no longer be
valid and renewal of the IP address assignment will be required.
DNS Servers
This option allows you to input the DNS server addresses to be offered to DHCP clients. If
Assign DNS server automatically is selected, the Pepwave router’s built-in DNS server
address (i.e., LAN IP address) will be offered.
WINS Server
This option allows you to optionally specify aWindows Internet Name Service (WINS)
server. You may choose to use the built-in WINS server or external WINS servers.
When this unit is connected using SpeedFusion
TM
, other VPN peers can share this unit's
built-in WINS server by entering this unit's LAN IP address in their DHCP WINS Server
setting. Afterward, all PC clients in the VPN can resolve the NetBIOS names of other
clients in remote peers.If you have enabled this option, a list of WINS clients will be
displayed at Status>WINS Clients.
BOOTP
Check this box to enable BOOTP on older networks that still require it.
Extended
DHCP Option
In addition to standard DHCP options (e.g., DNS server address, gateway address, subnet
mask), you can specify the value of additional extended DHCP options, as defined in RFC
2132. With these extended options enabled, you can pass additional configuration
information to LAN hosts.
To define an extended DHCP option, click the Add button, choose the option to define and
enter its value. For values that are in IP address list format, you can enter one IP address
per line in the provided text area input control. Each option can be defined once only.
DHCP
Reservation
This setting reserves the assignment of fixed IP addresses for a list of computers on the
LAN. The computers to be assigned fixed IP addresses on the LAN are identified by their
MAC addresses. The fixed IP address assignment is displayed as a cross-reference list
between the computers’ names, MAC addresses, and fixed IP addresses.
Name (an optional field) allows you to specify a name to represent the device. MAC
addresses should be in the format of 00:AA:BB:CC:DD:EE. Press to create a new
record. Press to remove a record. Reserved client information can be imported from
the Client List, located atStatus>Client List. For more details, please refer to
Section22.3.
Static Route Settings
Static Route
This table is for defining static routing rules for the LAN segment. A static route consists of
the network address, subnet mask, and gateway address. The address and subnet mask
values are in w.x.y.zformat.
The local LAN subnet and subnets behind the LAN will be advertised to the VPN. Remote
routes sent over the VPN will also be accepted. Any VPN member will be able to route to
