IMPORTANT:
Make sure the IP address is on the same network segment as the IP address of
the DHCP server interface or the DHCP relay agent interface to avoid wrong IP
address allocation.
Lease Duration
Specify the lease for IP addresses to be assigned.
NOTE:
•
If the lease has an end time specified later than the year 2106, the system
considers it an expired lease.
•
The lease duration does not have the inherit attribute.
Domain Name
Specify a domain name suffix for the DHCP client.
After specifying a domain name in the address pool, the DHCP server assigns
the domain name along with an IP address to a client.
Gateway IP Address
Specify a gateway for the DHCP client.
DHCP clients that want to access hosts outside the local subnet need a
gateway to forward data. After specifying a gateway in the address pool, the
DHCP server assigns the gateway address along with an IP address to a
client.
Primary DNS Server
Specify a primary DNS server for the DHCP client.
In order for clients to access the Internet using a domain name, the DHCP
server assigns the specified DNS server address along with an IP address to
a client.
Standby DNS Server Specify a standby DNS server for the DHCP client.
