DHCP Server radio button to disable the DHCP server. This is the default setting.

Enable DHCP Server

Select the Enable DHCP Server radio button to enable the wireless VPN firewall to

TCP/IP configuration for all computers connected to the VLAN. Enter the following

 

settings:

 

 

 

 

 

Domain Name

This setting is optional. Enter the domain name of the wireless

 

 

VPN firewall.

 

 

 

 

Start IP Address

Enter the start IP address. This address specifies the first of

 

 

the contiguous addresses in the IP address pool. Any new

 

 

DHCP client joining the LAN is assigned an IP address

 

 

between this address and the end IP address. The default IP

 

 

address 176.16.2.100.

 

 

 

 

End IP Address

Enter the end IP address. This address specifies the last of the

 

 

contiguous addresses in the IP address pool. Any new DHCP

 

 

client joining the LAN is assigned an IP address between the

 

 

start IP address and this IP address. The default IP address

 

 

176.16.2.254.

 

 

Note: The start and end DHCP IP addresses should be in the

 

 

same network as the LAN TCP/IP address of the wireless VPN

 

 

firewall (that is, the IP address in the DMZ Port Setup section

 

 

as described earlier in this table).

 

 

 

 

Primary DNS

This setting is optional. If an IP address is specified, the

VPN firewall provides its own LAN IP address as the primary

 

 

DNS server IP address.

Server

wireless VPN firewall provides this address as the secondary

 

 

DNS server IP address.

specify the Windows NetBIOS server, if one is present in your

 

 

network.
