CRADLEPOINT MBR1400 USER MANUAL Firmware ver. 3.4.1

DHCP Server:

Changing settings for the DHCP server is optional. The default selections are almost always sufficient.

DHCP Server: (Default: Enabled) When the DHCP server is enabled, users of your network will be able to automatically connect to the Internet without any special configuration. It is recommended that you leave this enabled. Disabling the DHCP server is only recommended if you have another DHCP server on your network and it is configured properly.

Range Start and Range End: These designate the range of values in the reserved pool of IP addresses for the DHCP server. Values within this range will be given to any DHCP enabled computers on your network. The default values are almost always sufficient (default: 72 to 200, as in 192.168.0.72 to 192.168.0.200).

Example: The MBR1400 uses an IP address of 192.168.0.1 for its

primary network by default. 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 of 192.168.0.4. The starting IP address for the DHCP server needs to be 192.168.0.5 or higher.

Lease Time: [Default: 720 minutes (12 hours)] The lease time specifies how long DHCP-enabled computers will wait before requesting a new DHCP lease. Smaller values are better suited to busy environments.
