When DHCP server is enabled, it will allow DHCP
clients to obtain their network configuration from the
unit. In the figure above, the IP address range of
192.168.2.2 to 192.168.2.250 is dynamically assigned
to individual DHCP clients. The DHCP client may be
assigned an IP address like “192.168.2.XXX”. The IP
address “192.168.2.1” cannot be assigned as it is not
in the range and is also assigned to BOSS™ under
Basic Settings. If you assign another network (e.g.
172.16.2.XXX) to IP address ranges 2, 3, 4, please
refer to section 4.2 for further IP Alias setting. When
no other IP address ranges are assigned, a zero
value should be filled in to indicate that no other IP
addresses are available for assignment.
To Disable the DHCP Server
If you already have a DHCP server on your
network, or you do not have DHCP server on your
network, but you would like to assign a static IP
address to each device connected to the LAN
port of BOSS™.
1. Select Disable radio button
2. Click the Apply button. Or
1. Select Disable radio button.
2. Assign a static IP address to each device
connected to the LAN port.
For example, you have four PCs, PC1, PC2, PC3
and PC4 connected to the LAN port. You must
assign a UNIQUE static IP address i.e.
“192.168.2.34”, “192.168.2.25”, “192.168.2.18”,
“192.168.2.108” to PC1, PC2, PC3 and PC4
respectively. Notice the static IP addresses
assigned are all in the same network with BOSS™.
In Basic Settings, we set “192.168.2.1” as the
private IP address of BOSS™. Therefore, the
network it belongs to is “192.168.X.XXX”.
