ONFIGURING
DHCP
The OfficeConnect Remote 840 can be configured to support up to 40
workstations on the local LAN. In addition, the OfficeConnect Remote
840 can be configured to be a DHCP Relay.
When enabled, the Relay will process the broadcast request from the
local workstation and send it to one or two remote DHCP servers. The
response from the remote DHCP servers is processed and forwarded to
the local workstation.
