DHCP
Server
You
can
disable
or
enable
the
DHCP
(Dynamic
Host
Configuration
Protocol)
server
or
enable
the
router’s
DHCP
relay
functions.
The
DHCP
protocol
allows
your
router
to
dynamically
assign
IP
addresses
to
computers
on
your
network
if
they
are
configured
to
obtain
IP
addresses
automatically.
To
disable
the
router’s
DHCP
Server,
check
Disabled
and
click
Next,
then
click
Apply.
When
the
DHCP
Server
is
disabled
you
will
need
to
manually
assign
a
fixed
IP
address
to
each
Computer
on
your
network,
and
set
the
default
gateway
for
each
computer
to
the
IP
address
of
the
router
(by
default
this
is
10.0.0.2).
To
configure
the
router’s
DHCP
Server,
check
DHCP
Server
and
click
Next
.
You
can
then
configure
parameters
of
the
DHCP
Server
including
the
IP
pool
(starting
IP
address
and
ending
IP
address
to
be
allocated
to
Computers
on
your
network),
lease
time
for
each
assigned
IP
address
(the
period
of
time
the
IP
address
assigned
will
be
valid),
DNS
IP
address
and
the
gateway
IP
address.
These
details
are
sent
to
the
DHCP
client
(i.e.
your
PC)
when
it
requests
an
IP
address
from
the
DHCP
server.
Click
Apply
to
enable
this
function.
If
you
check
“
Use
Router
as
a
DNS
Server
”,
the
ADSL
Router
will
perform
the
domain
name
lookup,
find
the
IP
address
from
the
outside
network
automatically
and
forward
it
back
to
the
requesting
PC
in
your
LAN
(your
Local
Area
Network).
If
you
check
DHCP
Relay
Agent
and
click
Next
,
then
you
will
have
to
enter
the
IP
address
of
the
DHCP
server
which
will
assign
an
IP
address
back
to
the
DHCP
client
on
your
LAN.
Use
this
function
only
if
advised
to
do
so
by
your
network
administrator
or
ISP.
Click
Apply
to
enable
this
function.
