BCM50a Integrated Router Configuration — Basics
DHCP Table screen
With DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, RFC 2131 and RFC 2132)
individual clients can obtain TCP/IP configuration at start-up from a server. You
can configure the BCM50a Integrated Router as a DHCP server or disable it.
When configured as a server, the BCM50a Integrated Router provides the TCP/IP
configuration for the clients. If set to None, DHCP service is disabled and you
must have another DHCP server on your LAN, or else the computer must be
configured manually.
Click MAINTENANCE, and then the DHCP Table tab. Read-only information
here relates to your DHCP status. The DHCP table shows current DHCP Client
information (including IP Address, Host Name, and MAC Address) of all
network clients using the DHCP server.
