40.5.1 WAN DHCP
DHCP functionality can be enabled on the LAN, DMZ, WLAN or WAN as shown in Figure
393 on page 568 . LAN DHCP has already been discussed. The ZyWALL can act either as a
WAN DHCP client (IP Address Assignment field in menu 4 or menu 11.x.2 is Dynamic and
the Encapsulation field in menu 4 or menu 11 is Ethernet) or None, (when 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.
