SMC Networks SMCWHSG44-G manual Dhcp Relay, Load Balancing

Page 61

To always assign an IP address to a specific DHCP client:

1.Specify the MAC address of the DHCP client and the IP address to be assigned to it. Then, give a description for this mapping.

2.Select the corresponding Enabled check box.

2.4.4.2. DHCP Relay

When the DHCP server functionality is set to “DHCP Relay”, the SMCWHSG44 won't assign the IP address to the clients. It will forward the received DHCP requests from the clients to the designate DHCP server. The only setting for DHCP relay is DHCP server IP address.

Fig. 67. DHCP Relay Settings.

2.4.5. Load Balancing

The SMCWHSG44-G provides a WAN port Load Balancing mechanism. Without any policy specified in default settings, the outgoing traffic (from LAN to WAN, also known as 'Out-bound Load-balancing') will be automatical- ly balanced between every enabled WAN port, hence the traffic will be equal- ly balanced under the same throughput level of every WAN interface.

Fig. 68. Load Balancing Mechanism.

In addition, the SMCWHSG44-G can also set the load balancing policy by Port or IP range, so that the traffic of specified Port or IP range will be assigned the appointed WAN interface.
