6 Networking Services - IP, DHCP and DNS

DHCP Depending on the size and complexity of your network, a few DHCP configurations can be envisaged:
LAN Type | DHCP | Argumentation |
| Mode |
|
|
|
|
Simple | No | All few members of the small LAN have static IP |
|
| addresses, including the AST350i. |
|
|
|
Medium | Server | For small home LANs it might be worthwhile to |
sized |
| configure all of your LAN devices as DHCP clients, |
|
| and the AST350i as the DHCP server. |
|
| In this configuration each time a computer starts, it will |
|
| obtain its IP configuration from the AST350i. |
|
|
|
Advanced | Client | For advanced networks, the role of DHCP server might |
|
| be performed by an IP node other than the AST350i |
|
| on the local LAN. |
