DESCRIPTION

DHCP Setup

 

 

 

DHCP

If set to Server, your ZyXEL Device 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 ZyXEL Device 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 field in this case.

 

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

 

 

IP Pool Starting

This field specifies the first of the contiguous addresses in the IP

Address

address pool.

 

 

Pool Size

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

 

 

Remote DHCP

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

Server

address of the actual remote DHCP server here.

 

 

DNS Server
