Enable DHCP Server
If no DHCP is available in the LAN where the VioStor locates, you can enable this
function to enable the VioStor as a DHCP server and allocate dynamic IP address to
DHCP clients in LAN.
You can set the range of IP addresses allocated by DHCP server and the lease time.
Lease time refers to time that IP address is leased to the clients by DHCP server.
When the time expires, the client has to acquire an IP address again.
Note: If there is an existing DHCP server in your LAN, do not enable this function.
Otherwise, there will be IP address allocation and network access errors.
