Configuration and
Management
•
Lease Time – This specifies the number of hours a client can lease
an IP address, from the dynamically allocated IP pool. The
maximum value is 65535 and a value of 0 means the lease is
permanent.
•
DNS IP – This specifies the Domain Name System server, used by
the DHCP clients using leased IP addresses, to translate hostnames
into IP addresses or vice-versa.
•
WINS IP – This specifies the IP address of the Windows Internet
Naming Service server. This server has software that resolves
NetBIOS names to IP addresses.
•
Domain Name – This is the common suffix, shared by networked
hosts, used to represent a common network domain.
•
State – This enables or disables the dynamic IP Pool function.
Static IP Pool
The Static IP Pool configuration functions in much the same way as the
Dynamic IP Pool configuration. The only difference is that a particular
IP address can be assigned to a particular host. This is used for hosts
such as servers that need to have static IP addresses to function
properly or to make them accessible to remote users. The host is
identified by the MAC address of its NIC, which must be entered on
this screen.
