DHCPv4. A checkbox to specify DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) instead of
static IP
addressing. Successful use requires a DHCP server installed on your network. If enabled,
other interface fields such as IP Address and Subnet Mask become read-only, as the
DHCP server assigns these after the platform reboots.
Note: In general (for stability), static IP addressing is recommended over DHCP. Caution:
Do not enable DHCP unless sure that your network has one or more DHCP servers!
Otherwise, the VWG may become unreachable over the network.
IPv4 Address. The “static” IP address for this host unique on your network. When
changed and saved, this will be the new IP address under which you will connect to the
VWG
IPv4 Subnet Mask. The “static” IP subnet mask used by this host.
DHCPv4 Server. Applies only if DCHP is enabled. Shows read-only address of the DHCP
server from which this host last obtained its IP address settings.
DHCPv4 Lease Granted. Applies only if DCHP is enabled. Shows a read-only timestamp
of when the DHCP lease started.
DHCPv4 Lease Expires. Applies only if DCHP is enabled. Shows a read-only timestamp
of when the DHCP lease will expire, and will need renewal.
