DHCP Server Settings

DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Control Protocol. The DIR-412 has a built-in DHCP server. The DHCP Server will automatically

assign an IP address to the computers on the LAN/private network. Be sure to set your computers to be DHCP clients by setting

their TCP/IP settings to Obtain an IP Address Automatically. When you turn your computers on, they will automatically load

the proper TCP/IP settings provided by the DIR-412. The DHCP Server will automatically allocate an unused IP address from

the IP address pool to the requesting computer. You must specify the starting and ending address of the IP address pool.
