SERVER
The built-in DHCP server can be used for distributing IP addresses. By default it is,
however, turned off and may be activated by using the Activate DHCP server option.
Note:
The range of IP addresses must be within the same range like the IP address of the
interface used!
The interfaces, on which the DHCP server should respond to client requests, may be
specified in the On following interfaces options in more detail. The pool range can be
set up separately for each interface.
Additionally to distributing IP addresses, the DHCP server can also transmit a domain
search prefix and three DNS server addresses in server mode. This information is
forwarded to DHCP clients. The device is using an internal DNS utility in order to buffer all
enquiries. Should the Access Point not work with its own static IP address but as a DHCP
client, this data will be overwritten by the DHCP server used in that case.
