3.Review the DHCP Server settings.

•DHCP Server: Enable or Disable the DHCP server.

•Start IP: Changes the starting address for the DHCP server range. (e.g.192.168.10.20)

•End IP: Changes the last address for the DHCP server range. (e.g. 192.168.10.30) Note: The Start IP and End IP specify the range of IP addresses to automatically assign to computers or devices on your network.

•DHCP Lease Time – Click the drop-down list to select the lease time.

Note: The DHCP lease time is the amount of time a computer or device can keep an IP address assigned by the DHCP server. When the lease time expires, the computer or device will renew the IP address lease with the DHCP server, otherwise, if there is no attempt to renew the lease, the DHCP server will reallocate the IP address to be assigned to another computer or device.

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) reservation (also called Static DHCP) allows your router to assign a fixed IP address from the DHCP server IP address range to a specific device on your network. Assigning a fixed IP address can allow you to easily keep track of the IP addresses used on your network by your computers or devices for future reference or configuration such as virtual server (also called port forwarding, see “Virtual Server” on page 33) or special applications (also called port triggering, see “Special Applications” on page 34).

1.Log into your router management page (see “Access your router management page” on page 24).

2.Click on Network, and click on LAN Setting.

3.Under Add DHCP Reservation section, review the DHCP reservation settings.

•MAC Address: Enter the MAC (Media Access Control) address of the computer or network device to assign to the reservation. (e.g. 00:11:22:AA:BB:CC)
