If it is 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 is used, the following items need to be set:

None
