1.8.4. SETUP WIZARD Step 3: Configuring DHCP Server Settings

Fig. 16. DHCP Server Settings.

The SMCWHSG44-Gcan automatically assign IP addresses to client computers by DHCP. DHCP server settings include Default gateway, Subnet mask, Primary DNS server, and Secondary DNS server. Additionally, you can specify the first IP address that will be assigned to the clients and the number of allocatable IP addresses. In most cases, Default Gateway and Primary DNS server should be set to the IP address of the Router's LAN interface (e.g., the default LAN IP address is 192.168.2.1), and Subnet mask is set to 255.255.255.0.

When the functionality is chosen to “DHCP Relay”, the SMCWHSG44-G will not assign any IP address to the clients. It forwards the received DHCP requests from the clients to the designate DHCP server. The only setting for DHCP relay is DHCP server IP address.

1.8.5. SETUP WIZARD Step 4: Configuring IEEE 802.11 Settings
