DESCRIPTION

 

DHCP

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, RFC 2131 and RFC 2132) allows

 

 

individual clients (computers) to obtain TCP/IP configuration at startup from a

 

 

server. Unless you are instructed by your ISP, leave the DHCP check box

 

 

selected. Clear it to stop the ZyWALL from acting as a DHCP server. When

 

 

configured as a server, the ZyWALL provides TCP/IP configuration for the

 

 

clients. If not, DHCP service is disabled and you must have another DHCP

 

 

server on your LAN, or else the computers must be manually configured. When

 

 

set as a server, fill in the rest of the DHCP setup fields.

 

 

 

 

IP Pool Starting

radio button.

 

 

 

 

IP Address

Click Bridge to go to the Bridge screen where you can view and/or change the

 

 

bridge settings.

 

 

 

 

Apply

Click Apply to save your changes back to the ZyWALL. After you click Apply,

 

 

please wait for one minute and use the IP address you configured in the LAN

 

 

Interface IP Address field to access the ZyWALL again.

Click Reset to begin configuring this screen afresh.

 

 

 

26.10 F/W Upload Screen

Find firmware at www.zyxel.com in a file that (usually) uses the system model name with a

.bin extension, for example, "zywall.bin". The upload process uses HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) and may take up to two minutes. After a successful upload, the system will reboot. See Section 41.5 on page 579 for upgrading firmware using FTP/TFTP commands.

Click MAINTENANCE > F/W UPLOAD. Follow the instructions in this screen to upload firmware to your ZyWALL.

Only upload firmware for your specific model!
