User's Manual

Whenever there is a request, the DHCP server will automatically allocate an

unused IP Address from the IP Address pool to the requesting computer.

You must specify the starting and ending address of the IP Address pool.

4. Gateway:

Optional, this information will be passed to the client. The Gateway Address

would be the IP Address of an alternate Gateway. This function enables you

to assign another gateway to your local PC, when the DHCP server assigns

an IP Address to your PC.

5. Secondary Address Selection:

Optional, the secondary address is providing a safe way for network

administrator to quickly access the Router where there is no DHCP server

present in the network. It will always come up with the setting where the

LAN Address Type is set on Dynamic. Click on the field of automatic IP,

Router will provide itself an automatic private IP, like Windows system does.

Note: Auto IP: When a system is configured for TCP/IP "to Obtain

an IP address automatically" via DHCP, it will first attempt

to locate a DHCP-server (which can takes some time). If

no DHCP server is found on the network, it will use the

build-in "Automatic Client Configuration" (sometimes

referred to as APIPA ) to assign itself an IP-address in the

address-range 169.254.x.x with Subnet- mask

255.255.0.0. The double x is calculated by the MAC

address of LAN port.
