. You can then configure
parameters of the DHCP Server including the IP pool (starting IP address and ending IP
address to be allocated to PCs on your network), lease time for each assigned IP address
(the period of time the IP address assigned will be valid), DNS IP address and the gateway

address from the DHCP server. Click
