Managing SimpleShare Network
NETWORK MANAGEMENT
DHCP CLIENT NETWORK SETUP
DHCP client is the default IP addressing protocol set on SimpleShare. In this mode, SimpleShare receives its IP address and
subnet mask, along with other networking configuration information, from the DHCP server on the network. Since most home
gateways and routers use the DHCP protocol to assign IP addresses to the computers and other devices on the network, this is
the easiest way to manage IP addressing.
1 Click the Networking menu.
2 From the LAN Protocol list, choose DHCP Client.
3 To enable SimpleShare auto configuration, select
Enabled from the LAN IP Autoconfiguration list.
4 Click .
LAN IP Autoconfiguration makes it possible for SimpleShare
to configure itself on your IP network automatically, when a
DHCP server is not available. Autoconfiguration provides
“zero configuration” for SimpleShare by automatically
discovering devices on the network and assigning an IP
address to SimpleShare without user intervention.
