DHCP Server The Magnum Router has the ability to act as a local DHCP server in a network environment.
It cannot function as an enterprise level DHCP server, pass DHCP traffic across any of its WAN
ports, does not support BOOTP processing and does not support multiple scopes.
Making the Magnum Router the local DHCP server eliminates unneeded WAN traffic while IP
hosts make requests for information.
