DHCP Server: Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is used to automatically assign IP

addresses and configuration information to wi-fi clients, thereby greatly simplifying network set up.

Use these fields to configure your CLEAR Spot’s DHCP Server.

Enable DHCP Server: Click the box to enable the service.

DHCP Server IP Address: Set the Internet Protocol (IP) address (in decimal format) used

to locate and access the CLEAR Spot on the local wi-fi network the CLEAR Spot creates.

DHCP Starting IP Address: Set the first IP address (in decimal format) assigned by the

DHCP server, in dotted decimal format. It must be greater than the IP address value of the

gateway.

DHCP Ending IP Address: Set the final IP address (in decimal format) assigned by the

DHCP server. If the DHCP server runs out of DHCP addresses, users cannot access

network resources. If this happens, increase the Ending IP or decrease the Lease Time.

DHCP Lease Time: Set the time that a network computer remains connected to the

gateway using its currently assigned IP address. At the end of this time, the DHCP server

renews the lease or assigns the computer a new IP address.

DHCP Lease Reservation: Use these fields to reserve a specific IP address for a device.

Add: Enter the Host Name, MAC Address and IP Address to reserve a specific IP address

for the CLEAR Spot.

Delete: Select items to delete.

Refresh: Refreshes the DHCP Lease Status periodically.
