DHCP Server (for AP/Client-Router mode only)

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is a networking protocol that allows administrators to assign

temporary IP addresses to network computers by “leasing” an IP address to a user for a limited amount of time,

instead of assigning permanent IP addresses.

The IE-WL-VL-AP-BR-CL can act as a simplified DHCP server and easily assign IP addresses to your DHCP

clients by responding to the DHCP requests from the client ends. The IP-related parameters you set on this

page will also be sent to the client.

You can also assign a static IP address to a specific client by entering its MAC address. IE-WL-VL-AP-BR-CL

provides a Static DHCP mapping list with up to 16 entities. Be reminded to check the Active check box for

each entity to activate the setting.

You can check the IP assignment status under Status → DHCP Client List.
