UltraLine Home DSL Router (Models 7400, 7401)

 

 

 

DHCP Server

This setting allows the ADSL router to automatically assign IP addresses to

 

local devices connected on the LAN. Westell advises setting this to enabled for

 

 

the private LAN.

 

 

Off = DHCP Server is disabled

 

 

Private LAN = DHCP addresses will be saved into the Private LAN

 

 

configuration.

 

 

Public LAN = DHCP addresses will be saved into the Public LAN

 

 

configuration. This option is only available if the Public LAN DHCP server is

 

 

enabled.

 

 

NOTE: These addresses will be overwritten if the Internet Service Provider

 

 

supports dynamic setting of these values.

 

DHCP Start Address

Factory Default = 192.168.1.15

 

 

This field displays the first IP address that the DHCP server will provide. The

 

 

DHCP Start Address must be within the IP address and lower than the DHCP

 

 

End Address. You may use any number from 0 to 254 in this address.

 

DHCP End Address

Factory Default = 192.168.1.47

 

 

This field displays the last IP address that the DHCP server will provide. The

 

 

DHCP End Address must be within the IP address and higher than the DHCP

 

 

Start Address. You may use any number from 0 to 254 in this address.

 

DHCP Lease Time

Factory Default = 01:00:00:00

 

 

Displays the amount of time the provided addresses will be valid, after which

 

 

the DHCP client will usually re-submit a request.

 

 

NOTE: DHCP Lease Time is displayed in the format (dd:hh:mm:ss)*. This

 

 

value must be greater than 10 seconds. Seconds must be between 0 and 59,

 

 

minutes must be between 0 and 59, and hours must be between 0 and 23.

 

 

*(dd = days, hh = hours, mm = minutes, ss = seconds)
