DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. The DHCP section is where you configure the built-in DHCP Server to assign IP addresses to the computers and other devices on your local area network (LAN).

Use the DHCP section to configure the built-in DHCP Server to assign IP addresses to the computers and other devices on the local area network.

4.3.1DHCP Server Settings

Enable DHCP Server. (Default: Enabled). Once your CBA750 router is properly configured and this option is enabled, the DHCP Server will manage the IP addresses and other network configuration information for computers and other devices connected to your Local Area Network. There is no need for you to do this yourself.

The computers (and other devices) connected to your LAN also need to have their TCP/IP configuration set to "DHCP" or "Obtain an IP address automatically".

When you set Enable DHCP Server, the following options are displayed.

DHCP IP Address Range. (Default: 192.168.0.100-192.168.0.199). This option defines the range of addresses available for the CBA750 to assign to an internal network. If there are any devices using static IP addresses, you must be sure the addresses do not fall within the range defined here. A Static IP address is one that is entered in manually on the device.

Example: The CBA750 uses an IP address of 192.168.0.1. A computer designated as a Web server has a static IP address of 192.168.0.3. Another computer is designated as an FTP server with a static IP address
