Note
You must configure an Ethernet interface and enter the subnet address and the subnet mask length on which the interface is listening in the Subnet text box (see steps 6 and 7) before you enable the DHCP Server Process. For more information on how to configure Ethernet interfaces see “Ethernet Interfaces” on page 34.

5.Enter the subnet address of the Ethernet interface you have configured for the DHCP server process in the Subnet text box.
6.Enter the mask length for the subnet in the Mask Length text box.

8.(Optional) Enter the maximum lease length, in seconds, for client IP addresses in the Maximum Lease text box. This would be the longest lease the server would allow. If you do not enter a value, the configuration will default to 86,400 seconds.

Note
Make sure that Enabled is selected in the State field. This is the default selection.
