39.5.1 WAN DHCP
DHCP functionality can be enabled on the LAN, DMZ, WLAN or WAN as shown in Figure
375 on page 546. LAN DHCP has already been discussed. The ZyWALL can act either as a
WAN DHCP client (IP Address Assignment field in menu 4 or menu 11.x.2 is Dynamic and
the Encapsulation field in menu 4 or menu 11 is Ethernet) or None, (when you have a static
IP). The WAN Release and Renewal fields in menu 24.4 conveniently allow you to release
and/or renew the assigned WAN IP address, subnet mask and default gateway in a fashion
similar to winipcfg.
