11.3 DHCP Configuration (Private LAN)
The following settings will be displayed if you select DHCP Configuration from the Configuration menu.
DHCP Server This setting allows the ADSL router to automatically assign IP addresses to
local devices connected on the LAN. Westell advises setting this to enabled for
the private LAN.
Off = DHCP Server is disabled
Private LAN = DHCP addresses will be saved into the Private LAN
configuration.
Public LAN = DHCP addresses will be saved into the Public LAN
configuration. This option is only available if the Public LAN DHCP server is
enabled.
NOTE: These addresses will be overwritten if the Internet Service Provider
supports dynamic setting of these values.
