9.4.1 WAN DHCP

DHCP functionality can be enabled on the LAN or WAN as shown in Figure 9-11. The Prestige can act either as a WAN DHCP client (IP Address Assignment field in menu 4 or menu 11.3 is Dynamic and the Encapsulation field in menu 4 or menu 11 is Ethernet) or “none”, i.e., you have a static IP. The WAN Release and Renewal fields in menu 24.4 conveniently allow you to release and/or renew the assigned WAN IP address, subnet mask and default gateway in a fashion similar to winipcfg.
