IP Configuration by DHCP

When an IP-based local area network is installed, each workstation must be configured with an IP address. If the workstations need to access the Internet, they should also be configured with a gateway address and one or more DNS server addresses. As an alternative to manual configuration,

there is a method by which each device on the network can obtain this configuration information automatically. A device on the network may act as a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server. The DHCP server stores a list or pool of IP addresses, along with other information (such as gateway and DNS addresses) that it may assign to the other devices on the network. The Model RT328/RH348 router has the capacity to act as a DHCP server.
