DHCP Server Settings (Optional)
DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Control Protocol. The DSL-2770L has a built-in DHCP server. The DHCP Server will automatically
assign an IP address to the computers on the LAN/private network. Be sure to set your computers to be DHCP clients by setting
their TCP/IP settings to “Obtain an IP Address Automatically.” When you turn your computers on, they will automatically load
the proper TCP/IP settings provided by the DSL-2770L. 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.
Check this box to enable the DHCP server on your router. Uncheck to
disable this function.
Enter the starting and ending IP addresses for the DHCP server’s IP
assignment.
Note: If you statically (manually) assign IP addresses to your computers
or devices, make sure the IP addresses are outside of this range or you
may have an IP conict.
The length of time for the IP address lease. Enter the Lease time in
minutes.
Check the box to allow the DSL-2770L to act as a DHCP relay.
If DHCP Relay is enabled, enter the IP address of the DHCP server to relay.
