3.2.6 DHCP:
Use the DHCP screen to set up your gateway as a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server. DHCP servers automatically assign IP addresses to all the clients on your network.
DHCP Server
If you choose to enable DHCP, make sure there is not already a DHCP server on your network.
If you don't enable DHCP, you'll need to manually configure an IP address for each computer on your network. If you do enable DHCP, make sure that each computer is configured to retrieve an IP address automatically.
IP Pool Starting Address/IP Pool Ending Address:
Specify the IP Pool Starting Address to designate the first IP address that can be assigned to a computer on the network. Similarly, specify the IP Pool Ending Address to designate the last IP address that can be assigned.
