Overview
A DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) Server automatically assigns IP
address to each computer on your network. Unless you already have one, it is highly
recommended that your router be set up as a DHCP server. Simply fill out the values
of each entry and click the “Apply” button. DHCP Setting:
• Do you want to enable DHCP Server on this router?
Click the “Enable” option to enable the DHCP server. Note that you can’t have
two DHCP servers on the network at the same time. Set the router’s DHCP
option to “Disable” if you already have one DHCP server on your network.
• Number of DHCP Users
Enter the maximum number of PC that you want the DHCP server to assign
IP addresses to, with the absolute maximum being 253.
• Starting IP Address
Enter a numerical value for the DHCP server to start with when issuing IP
address.
