This table describes the parameters that can be modified in DHCP Server Setup.
Parameters | Description |
DHCP Server IP | This is the IP address of the DHCP server. |
|
|
DHCP Gateway IP | Though the DHCP server usually also acts as the |
| Default Gateway of the DHCP client, the access |
| point allows you to define a different Gateway IP |
| Address which will be allocated as the Default |
| Gateway IP of the DHCP client. The DHCP client |
| will thus receive its dynamic IP address from the |
| access point but will access to the Internet or the |
| other LAN through the Default Gateway defined |
| by the DHCP Gateway IP Address. |
| For instance if the access point in Access Point |
| Client mode connects to an Internet gateway X, |
| a PC wired to the access point will be unable to |
| obtain a dynamic IP address directly from X. But |
| if you enable the DHCP server of the access |
| point and set the IP address of X as the DHCP |
| Gateway IP Address, the PC will obtain its IP |
| address from the access point and access the |
| Internet through X. |
