DHCP Setup

 

 

 

DHCP

If set to Server, your Prestige can assign IP addresses, an IP default gateway

 

and DNS servers to Windows 95, Windows NT and other systems that support

 

the DHCP client.

 

If set to None, the DHCP server will be disabled.

 

If set to Relay, the Prestige acts as a surrogate DHCP server and relays DHCP

 

requests and responses between the remote server and the clients. Enter the IP

 

address of the actual, remote DHCP server in the Remote DHCP Server in this

 

case.

 

When DHCP server is used, the following items need to be set:

 

 

Client IP Pool

This field specifies the first of the contiguous addresses in the IP address pool.

Starting Address

 

Size of Client IP Pool

This field specifies the size or count of the IP address pool.

 

 

Primary DNS Server

Enter the IP addresses of the DNS servers. The DNS servers are passed to the

Secondary DNS

DHCP clients along with the IP address and the subnet mask.

Server

 

Remote DHCP

If Relay is selected in the DHCP field above then enter the IP address of the

Serve

actual remote DHCP server here.

IP Address

Enter the (LAN) IP address of your Prestige in dotted decimal notation

 

 

IP Subnet Mask

Your Prestige will automatically calculate the subnet mask based on the IP address

 

that you assign. Unless you are implementing subnetting, use the subnet mask

 

computed by the Prestige (refer to Appendix C IP Subnetting for more information).

RIP Direction

Press [SPACE BAR] to select the RIP direction. Choices are Both, In Only, Out

 

Only or None.

Multicast

IGMP (Internet Group Multicast Protocol) is a network-layer protocol used to

 

establish membership in a Multicast group. The Prestige supports both IGMP

 

version 1 (IGMP-v1) and version 2 (IGMP-v2). Press the [SPACE BAR] to enable

 

IP Multicasting or select None to disable it.

IP Policies

Create policies using SMT menu 25 (see Chapter 28 IP Policy Routing) and apply

 

them on the Prestige LAN interface here. You can apply up to four IP policy sets

 

(from twelve) by entering their numbers separated by commas.

Edit IP Alias

The Prestige supports three logical LAN interfaces via its single physical Ethernet

 

interface with the Prestige itself as the gateway for each LAN network. Press
