Enabling the DHCP Server

The DHCP Server feature of the ProxyServer manages all the IP address assignments on the private LAN. IP address management becomes completely transparent.

To enable the DHCP Server ability in the ProxyServer, click on the DHCP Server button in the Firewall Setup menu. The DHCP Server Setup dialog box appears.

The DHCP Server Setup menu allows you to customize each client PC configuration from one central point. You can establish a range of client addresses in the Manage Addresses group. You can then exclude specific addresses from that range in the Exclude Range field. You can also add, delete, edit and bind addresses using the corresponding buttons in this group.

The Option Types and Values group on the bottom portion of the menu allows you to customize the configuration of the client platform. Again, you can add, delete and edit an option by highlighting it and clicking on the appropriate button. You cannot, however, edit or delete entries provided in the default list.
