ISDN Router 70
DHCP Settings
The router is preconfigured with a preset IP address pool and a gateway
(192.168.254.254). Before becoming active, the router’s DHCP server
attempts to locate other active DHCP servers on the network such as
Windows NT servers. If one is detected, the router’s DHCP server
disables itself.
This picture shows a DHCP sample configuration.
The DHCP Server Settings screen allows users to:
•
Change the IP Address Pool if needed
•
Configure DNS information specifically for Internet access
•
Configure the WINS Servers settings if working with Windows NT
⇒
To access the DHCP Server Settings screen, click System Settings
and DHCP Settings .
DHCP IP Address Pool
The existing IP Address Pool settings can be changed if you need to
modify/increase the range of your address pool.
If you change your router’s IP address, the router’s DHCP server will
automatically provide a new IP address pool for the new subnet if the
preceding subnet was enabled.
DNS Configuration
If you intend to primarily configure your router for Internet access, you
need to enter DNS information provided by your Internet Service
Provider.
