to obtain an IP address from a DHCP server, which manages a pool of IP ad-
dresses and network information on a "request and grant" basis. Upon timeout
(or lease expiration), the IP address assigned to the client can be re-assigned
to a new client. Select Static (Static Allocation) to manually enter an IP address
from a speci c range of addresses (usually assigned by a network administra-
tor). A client with an IP Address that falls into this speci c range of addresses
will be allowed to access the network. A static IP Address assigned to a device
is retained until a different address is manually reassigned to it. The options are
DHCP and Static.
