Note
If you configure the access point as a DHCP server, it is not intended
to replace a general purpose, configurable DHCP server, and it
makes no provisions for synchronizing DHCP policy between itself
and other DHCP servers. Customers with complex DHCP policy
requirements should use other DHCP server software.
Note
You cannot configure the access point as both a DHCP server and a
DHCP client.
To avoid a single point of failure, you can configure more than one
access point to be a DHCP server; however, the access points do not
share DHCP client databases. You should configure each DHCP server
with a different DHCP address pool from which to allocate client
addresses.
To configure the access point as a DHCP server:
1. From the menu, click TCP/IP Settings. The TCP/IP Settings screen
appears, as shown in Figure 18.
Figure 18 TCP/IP Settings
2. Verify that the IP Subnet Mask field and IP Router field are configured.
For help, see Configuring the TCP/IP Settings on page 50.
